David is a career railwayman, with over 30 years' service with British Rail and Regional Railways, finishing at a very senior level with Central Trains. His key strengths are the ability to spot new business opportunities and then build the partnership required to develop, fund and implement the scheme. His clear understanding of the dynamics of a successful railway business, matching market requirements with effective resource utilisation, have continued to be applied to the new railway since his move into consultancy, where he specialises in economic and operational feasibility studies.
