Does anyone know if the railway works in Doncaster-known locally as The Plant kept records. Another thing to do when I go there. Lots of relatives worked there so it could give useful info ...if they still have the records... Jennie

Hi, why do I never think of the obvious! Somehow expect everything to be really difficult. Jennie

There are quite a few references to Doncaster Rail Works at the National Archives Glen

The archives and Doncaster between them probably have what I am looking for. Thanks very much. Jennie
