About this image

DescriptionI have a photo taken at Wallsend, I would guess the mid 40's.
Standing: M Anderson (elec), J Harper (apprentice fitter), Chas Reid (elec) (Uncle), John Browning (fitter), Tom (fitter), Tom Morgan (carpenter), Colin Burns (general hand), Dave Steel/Steers (engineer), kneeling Barry Reid (fitter) (Father), and Colin Campbell (striker).
The names were provided on a list by Uncle Charlie years ago, written in pencil so I hope I have the names correct.Date of Photo1940`sMap^[1]ContributorTony Reid
