I started at Chiltern in 2004 and I stood in awe in Adrian’s office at Aylesbury as he welcomed me (and the others) into the railway family. I remained in awe for all the time he was at Chiltern’s helm. His guidance was readily available and always gratefully received. Even after he left Chiltern, I continued to remain in awe, and still do even now, of his achievements and, hopefully, I life well lived. Rest peacefully Adrian.
