Haughton Community School

"In the Works" (A Working History of Darlington Locomotive Works).

 
 
  A group of pupils from Haughton Community School interviewed ex-railway workers from North Road Locomotive Works, Darlington and these interviews along with photographs and information from the Darlington Railway Museum and Darlington Reference Library helped to form the basis of an exhibition that recorded the heritage and the history of the North Road Works.

The aim of the project was to record the memories and thoughts of railway workers and their families who had worked at North Road Locomotive Works, Darlington prior to its closure in April 1966.
