Description
A railwayman through and through, Tim Shoveller found himself using his bardic lamp to help guide an ambulance to a halt when his wife went into early labour.
But his railway life started long before parenthood. Tim was first introduced to the railway trainspotting with his mother on the platform at Reading. The railway found its way into his blood. By 15 he was a volunteer at the Watercress Line on Mid Hants Railway this triggered a lifelong career that started as a guard at Guildford.
Tim progressed through the passenger service during privatisation before making a switch to the freight service and running the UK’s largest maritime intermodal logistics operator, Freightliner Group.
