If I remember right, there are a few bridges on the route beyond Sleights for the Esk Valley Line.
Haven't noticed the height restrictions unfortunately and to be honest, wouldn't know the height differences between the current allocations and a Temsa Avenue.

However, a quick check on google maps of the bridge at Egton (outside a favourite pub of mine), reveals that is 12' 9". More than enough clearance for a Solo. No idea about the Temsa though, but I would imagine it would fit under that one.

Regardless of bridges, I reckon the question marks would be around vehicle length, suitability for the winding roads and whether or not the engine could pull up the hills.
It is a 'town' bus afterall.

On another note, if anyone can work out how to do the pubs along the Esk Valley line from Lealholme or further inland, out towards the coast (finishing in Whitby) and tie it in with train and/or bus and maybe a little of shanks pony, feel free to drop me a line.
My head is battered.
