My late grangfather Mr E.E. Bradey and mother Mrs E.J.McCallum nee Bradey worked at Islington during the second world war. My grandfather worked in the Railcar Shop. My mother worked in the Typeing pool and as a secretary to Frederick Charles Meibourne the Head Locomotive Draftsman. She useto tell me she made trains with her typewriter. The Photos in this blog were found with my grandfathers things.
