This one-minute video pans round various York landmarks from the top of the wheel. Starting with a view of York station as the wheel ascends, the camera then pans round to York Minster, then a view of the River Ouse, then the Norwich Union building. As the pod reaches the very top of the wheel, the camera pans through the wheel's structure to see the recently-built St. Peter's Quarter housing development, ending with a view of St. Peter's School and a GNER train approaching York station from the North.
