60 years on……..

The 2 photographs below show the same factory (unit 12 park rose industrial estate) 60 years apart!!

The previous tenants of our factory were the Birmingham Railway Carriage and Wagon Company. They built magnificent trains and carriages such as the Dining Car 4110 Etoile du Nord and 4095 L’Oriental for the Orient Express (pictured below). They also built tanks and aeroplanes for several wars.
