My
grandfather, Ralph Ainscough, worked in the locomotive works
at Horwich, near Bolton, from 1912 to his retirement in 1965.
He was a fitter in the works. I remember being taken round the
works by him when I was a small boy in the late1940s. Although
more than sixty years had gone by since this photograph was
taken, the scene was not markedly different, with all sorts
of banging and ringing going on as the men manouevred the huge
wheels around. |
