That‘s interesting as it was my dad who worked at Parkside and his dad was an engine driver on the Cadbury’s railway line. If you do have any photos that would be fantastic.

Love the family connection to the Cadbury Railway; my Great Grandfather (Jack Stanford) was the Cadbury railway foreman from 1907 to 1944; I am working on a book presently on the family railway history and obviously the railway around the factory will feature heavily. Would love to hear any recollections you may have. Paul
