An aerial view of Longbridge taken in 1938, looking East; the A38 Bristol Road runs from bottom left to top left, Lickey Road is at the bottom right, and Longbridge Lane is just visible going out of the picture top right. West Works are on the left, with South Works occupying the centre of the picture.

Hi Mike

I can see at least 16 omnibuses and 14 trams.
That’s at least 1000 seats for workers?

Regards

And one train pulled by a 4F I think.

..and now check the same place on Google Maps or Google Earth. What a difference - though many footprints of the former factory buildings are still there.

Mike,

I used to check the gallery from time to time and look at new submissions in the "test category". Recently there don't seem to be any. Are they being dealt with more quickly or are there just very few submissions?

Checking through each category in turn to see if I've missed anything is a bit time consuming ... especially as I get distracted every time!

Peter.

Peter, new contributions seem to have dried up ...
