1931 Foden 'C' type steam lorry, VN 2912

Named 'Santa Maria' and given the road registration VN 2912, this six ton, two geared, steam powered lorry was built in 1931 by Fodens Ltd at their Elworth Works in Sandbach, Cheshire. It was given the serial number 13802. This would be one of the last steam lorries built by Foden's, as at the end of 1932 they turned to diesel power.

'Santa Maria' is seen at the Strumpshaw Steam Engine Rally in Norfolk.
