Other than the stack of chassis (already outdated technology by 1968) I guess a similar photo taken today would not be very different. laugh

Fabulous photo! I've forwarded it on to Mum to see if she can spot my Grandad - he would have been there at the time.

Mum is pretty sure the bloke on the right leaning against the wall with his hand on his hip is Grandad. The one in the white shirt and braces near him is Uncle Sid (my Great Uncle) who got him the job there.

TBM if you get in touch with the Yorkshire Post you can get a print from them. ( for a few beer vouchers)

Thank you!

Edit: Unfortunately they don't own the copyright so unable to sell me one.

TBM, I had to reduce the file size to post on TM-IMG. Even zipped it's 9 meg, not sure if that will email? I'm willing to try if you pm me your email add. Or did you just want a print?
