Here's a great movie about Triumph. It's over 30 mins. long. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

50's Triumph film

Great find.
Watched about a 1/3rd - will finish it later.

Anyway, that's EXACTLY like the factory is now!!
Not a thing has changed.

The Mr Chumley-Warner type still does the voice over too.

I started work after school in engineering and it's strange to see all that machining going on with no guards to anything!

These days you can barely see the work for the guards!

UK Health and Safety at work has become rediculous.

I've seen bus drivers and even driving instructors wearing those stoopid flourescent vests IN the vehicle!!
What's all that about???

I'm all for safety at work (I worked at an engineering place using 400 ton presses, not nice when something goes wrong there I tell ya!) but some of it goes too far.

That's for when they jump out of the moving vehicle and run for their lives. I've seen some driving students at work.

Funny you should say that. I was watching Daisey Does Dallas the other day and asked myself the same question.
