ALLAN JUDD
PAGE (3)
This page shows a
selection of Allan's photos
which were taken at ICI Wilton Works where he worked for 34 years.
ICI
allowed one of their workshops to be used by the North Eastern
Locomotive
Preservation Group to overhaul
locomotives,
mainly steam, but there was a Deltic overhauled there as well.
These
shots are quite rare as special permission had to be obtained by Allan
from ICI to
take any
photographs in the works.
