Hi Ben, sorry no photos of Swinton goods yard. When I was at Cromwell road Juniors, the only cameras were "Box Brownies" or the annual school photographer!
I lived near the top of Agecroft Road up to 1951 then moved over the border into Irlams o'th Height till I joined the RAF in 1958. All my spotting was done within cycling distance so I knew the area very well.
Try to get a copy of the book "Salford in the days of steam" by Paul Shackcloth ISBN 0-9543128-2-1 Published by Steam Image at £17.95. It has some very interesting photos of places you will probably recognise.
