Hi,
Checkout the website for craigavon historical society - they have a few articles about Portadown Railway station. Your Grandfathers name sounds very familiar. I presume he was known as Sammy. My father worked on the railway too -fifty years in Portadown so I'll ask him in the morning to see if remembers him.
There is also a site re Wades Factory(in Portadown) run by a Cardwell McClure I have heard that he is interested in the history of the railway in Portadown-maybe he can help.
Regards,
Barbara
