This was the death of Henry Firth, which led to the strike in February 1918 when the COs refused to work so that they could accompany his coffin to the station." from: Barker, Pip (30 June 2021).

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced, neutral and plagiarism free (there's one long quote that Earwig picked up & I altered 'contingent' to 'group'). Hooks are both cited, personally I think ALT1 is more interesting, but I leave the choice to the promoter. QPQ is done. Lajmmoore (talk) 20:37, 3 September 2024 (UTC)
