Janet Brittain and Eric Cruddas , today's contributors to this North
Country testament of invention, belong to a family of inventors from
County Durham. Invention, in tact seems to have been a great part of their heritage, and among the more famous of their ancestors is John Dixon , who assisted George Stephen son in railway engineering. Many others of the family had remarkable and adventurous careers, and it is upon this long family tradition that
.today's speakers will call in building up their story.
