Survivors
Out of almost 700 produced between 1945 and 1947, only nine survive. Two of those are derelict in America and one in England has been converted into a towing vehicle. Now the only place you can have a ride on a Regent II is at the East Anglia Transport Museum near Lowestoft.
There is also one in British Columbia. Canada which is running and ready to be restored .

Famous quotes containing the word survivors:
“I believe that all the survivors are mad. One time or another their madness will explode. You cannot absorb that much madness and not be influenced by it. That is why the children of survivors are so tragic. I see them in school. They don’t know how to handle their parents. They see that their parents are traumatized: they scream and don’t react normally.”
—Elie Wiesel (b. 1928)
“I want to celebrate these elms which have been spared by the plague, these survivors of a once flourishing tribe commemorated by all the Elm Streets in America. But to celebrate them is to be silent about the people who sit and sleep underneath them, the homeless poor who are hauled away by the city like trash, except it has no place to dump them. To speak of one thing is to suppress another.”
—Lisel Mueller (b. 1924)
