Siehe automatische Übersetzung
Walter Hancock (June 16, 1799 - May 14, 1852) was an English inventor of the Victorian period remembered for his steam-powered road vehicles Hancock was one of the pioneers who led the coach to steam at a high stage of development. He built several of them, including Autopsy, Enterprise and Era, all of them equipped with powerful engines, high-pressure steam. Regular intercity bus services by steam-powered buses were pioneered in England in the 1830's running reliable services over road conditions which were too hazardous for horse-drawn transportation. Steam carriages were much less likely to overturn, did not run away with the customer as horses sometimes did, and they travelled faster than horse-drawn carriages.
