The Gromit Unleashed App told us that this Gromit was on the railway line but we searched and couldn't find it. So we decided to drive along a little bit towards the Lawrence Hill roundabout - where we found it on the corner of a main road. This was the last one of the evening as it was starting to get dark and Michael and I were both getting hungry for some Paella!
This is Lodekka - Number 60 on the trail and she reminds me of a steam train - I'm not sure why, maybe it's her colours. She was designed by Ignition DG Limited - a design organisation based in Bristol and the USA. This design was inspired by the Lodekka Bus - a famous set of busses from 1940 - 1980 in Bristol. One can still be seen at the M-Shed. The buses were famous for their green and cream colours - hence the colours of this Gromit. So when I said she looked like a train, I obviously meant bus!!
