Nominations for Rail Engineer of the Year

Tim Fenemore - **HAS LEFT**

Said the following about Morven Harrison:

“Morven is one of our great engineers of the future. She not only does an excellent engineering job, developing new and innovative products in a conservative market, buts also makes time to inspire a new generation of people into the engineering.

Over the past year Morven has done the following, largely under her own self-motivation and initiative:

- Developed new products that are now under type-test in North America and Australia

- Developed an excellent junior engineer (rescuing him from a job in retail by giving him a chance)

- Led science workshops in local schools to grab the attention of young people at an early stage in their career

- Developed a collaborative project with LUL to test new options for switches and crossings

- Presented in an innovative way at the RIA innovation conference, gaining recognition from everyone for the engaging way she put the message over

I hope that Morven's relatively junior level in the engineering discipline will not stand in the way of her consideration for this prestigious award.“
