His name was Thomas Joseph Timmons, he was 21 and working as a plate layer for British Rail. Because the accident happened in 1963 there are no longer any records. The accident occurred on Thursday 13 June 1963 at 8am at Harlington Station on the down slow line. He was resident at Ashburn Road, Luton at the time. I would be interested in any first hand accounts or in talking to someone who might have worked with him, or even if someone had any idea of where such information might be kept. I have tried newspapers, national records office and the rail company but have no actual report on the complete accident. I can be contacted at the following address T.MAHER Metzinger str.42 Nuertingen 72622 E-mail Terry.Maher@gmx.de GERMANY (tel.0049-7022-951532) APPEAL FOR INFORMATION
