Hi,
David Grain's excellent picture of the railway systems around Saltley prompted me
to take a look at an old linen blueprint I have of the Birmingham properties of
Metropolitan Cammell . Unfortunately it is not dated, but must be 1960's or before.
Fortunately it shows all the private railway systems for both the Saltley Works, the
Midland Works, and the links between, so I thought It might be of interest to
someone on here. It's difficult to copy the relevant bits of a large blueprint with
an A4 copier/scanner, but it seems to be all there, with enough reference points
to put them all together.
If anybody has any interest in any other parts of the Met properties of the era which
seem to be houses and an outline of the sports ground at Ward End, please let me know.
I suppose I should really find a safe repository for this Blueprint, as I'm sure it will
be binned when I'm gone.
Kind regards
Dave
