Strachen to Oz

Peter Strachen is heading down under.

Antipodean railway site Rail Page offers the following from NR's intranet posted Friday:

"Peter Strachan, route director, is to take up a new position running the entire public transport system of Brisbane and south east Queensland, Australia. Peter will take up the new position as chief executive officer of Translink Transit Authority in February 2009."

The search is on for a new Midlands route Director.
