This from the Times...
Northumbrian Water Group has hired one of the rail industry’s leading lights as its new chief executive. Heidi Mottram, managing director of Northern Rail, will join the water company... in March...
Northumbrian Water's gain, the railway's loss.
When Northern was formed it was generally held to be a basket case.
Without new trains and prevented from doing a desperately needed timetable recast little was expected of the franchise.
However Heidi won over key stakeholders, welded together her geographically vast empire and actually succeeded in growing traffic.
Eye wishes Heidi all the best and hopes she returns to the industry soon.
UPDATE: This from a Mr Geoff Brown...
Reading the rest of the Times story, I see the Finance Director is a Mr Chris Green!
Can it be long before our water pipes are painted red?
