Worked in the breaking shop, crane driver in the ingot yard 1986 to 98 good times and have lots of good memories. Thanks Robert Rimmer

Worked there Feb 1979 - May 1991, started in "Wheel Machine Shop", moved on to "Wheel Press/Axle Box Press" (Did some 10 hour night shifts in the "Wheel Forge" when there wasn't much work on the presses), then did 5 years in "Test Machine Shop" before taking voluntary redundancy in May 1991. Worked with some great guys, there were certainly some real characters worked there then.

Brilliant Video! I did my apprenticeship as a Metallurgist at Turners in 1981-1983 in the Quality control department and remeber the plant as it was shown in the Video. I do remember the ingots being snapped by a machine rather than being cut on a saw.

Worked here in mid to late 80s started as de scale on press (blower off) then moved up to mill handler on wheel mill Great place and team good times.

I was in charge of the Cable & Wireless team who designed and installed the computer system here .. wonderful bloke was our liaison .. Alan?

Good video...I guess the trains don't run through the estate now, used to be a beautiful park 'owned' by the De Trafford. Deer hunting etc..I go past now and have to slow down past the sewage works because of low flying Swallows.

apprentice 1964 to 1969
