So farewell Graham Smith, the man who acted as midwife to the mighty Rail Delivery Group!
Graham steps down as Director General of RDG today, after two and a half years in the job and prior to that spending a year supporting the Rail Value for Money study.
Not one to go quietly into the night Graham's renewed focus will be on the Railway Benefit Fund, where he will set up a central fund-raising group concentrating on encouraging corporate donations and contributions from the major players in the industry.
Owner Groups and suppliers can expect knocks on the door where Graham will deliver a pointed message encouraging those who profit from the industry to put something back for those employees that have fallen on hard times.
And quite right too!
With bags of experience Eye suspects that a number of people will also be knocking at the door of Albany Smith Management.
However, Graham assures Eye that he will not be taking commissions, although: "if somebody wants me to help them on other things and it's something that interests me I'll consider it".
Quite so, you can't keep a good consultant down...
