I must have met you many times, I was in the Pattern shop until 1952. Riley bros were in the foundry one was the gaffer and I think Billy drove the overhead crane, I think old Beech wer't gaffer in Brass shop. Joe Firth was the gate man & weigh bridge operator. There's not many ex Langs still alive today, I only know of one other, he was in the Tool shop, lives up top end of Royds St.
