Revision as of 10:45, 12 June 2021
Several road vehicles have been seen around Bigg City Port.
Cars
There are many vintage cars seen around the harbours. In the regatta parade, two of these cars were featured on top of barges. There are also two black cars, which were seen at the munitions factory. One of them is a 1934 Ford.
Many lorries/trucks have also been seen around the harbours. They deliver cargo from tramp steamers, ferries and ocean liners to other cities and towns. The lorries also come in different types; some are flatbeds while others are pickups or tankers.
In the episode Regatta, a broken blue car was seen at the garbage dump in the piles of garbage. It was later featured on Lord Stinker for the regatta.
