	Spondon files - the history
		Nothing is mass produced at Spondon, but chances are that if you want a chassis for a GSX 1100 motor or a GSX-R1100, the English frame specialists can find the appropriate jigs and perform their acts of wizardry.
		Remember too, that a Spondon chassis carries more than twenty years of racing heritage, so lightness and absoloute rigidity are fundamental features, even with their road bike chassis.
		Spondon’s GSX-R chassis has recently been granted Germany’s T.U.V approval and the Fireblade chassis, manufactured to the exact same standard, is soon to follow suit.

	Ducati Spondon 916
		The bike is more or less unique as, at the time of writing, Spondon have only supplied three frames to take the big Ducati V twin; the other two are race bikes and are not road legal, and one of those is in France.
		To make things even more exclusive, the frame was originally made to take one of the older air-cooled 900 V twins, and getting this engine to fit required some imaginative engineering to shoehorn everything in (the rear cylinder head has only 3mm clearance between it and the frame).
		The Ducati was sold on the day I took these photos to finance his next project, a Spondon GSXR1100 in a full race frame with a motor tuned to produce somewhere in the region of 170 b.h.p.

	The SERA Fleet Spondon loco Number 1 at the Coventry Railway Centre
		The loco was employed to haul trains of coal delivered to the main line yard at Spondon LMS/BR station along a mile long branch to the power station and shunt wagons as required.
		The first was when the power station became part of the nationalised CEGB in 1948 and the second a few years prior to the end of the locos working life when the CEGB sold the power station to a private company by the name of Courtaulds.
		It was this second change of ownership that heralded the end of the electric locomotive operation at Spondon as the firm already owned a fleet of diesel shunters on an adjacent site it was soon found more economic to use the diesels at both sites, thus displacing the three Spondon electric locomotives.
