Tributes have flooded in following the death of railway pioneer and the founder of Chiltern Railways Adrian Shooter. Mr Shooter is famed for launching the operator in the 1990s which still exists today, connecting Birmingham, Solihull, Warwickshire and Oxfordshire with London Marylebone.
He died on December 13 at the age of 74 after revealing last year that he had been diagnosed with motor neurone disease.
Mr Shooter was an engineer by trade and began his career with British Rail in 1970, leading maintenance depots, managing London St Pancras and holding various other senior positions within the industry.
