Gentlemen of the Iron Road #1

Telegrammed by Sir Arthur Sullivan
There are those who work upon the railways, and those who live and breath them.


The latest exciting Eye feature draws attention to the Gentlemen of the Iron Road.

This particular gentleman, looking nervously down from the cab as 87 crosses the Cambrian, is a highly respected engineering director of one of our major rolling stock companies.


In a previous life he was right hand man to a former BR chairman.

He also made the following photograph possible - which makes him a 'good egg'.

Do you know who it is yet?
