“Ryan averted a possible suicide at Radlett station in October 2014. While visiting a station he witnessed someone hanging over the road bridge extremely close to the overhead wires. He immediately contacted the signal man and SDC and asked for the power to be shut down as a precaution.
Ryan then asked the British Transport Police to attend and remove the lady. As a result of this intervention, he prevented a fatality and the subsequent distress this would have caused.“
“Just a line to thank you for an absolutely incredible night. The night itself was really fantastic and I said to my wife, June, just let’s sit back and enjoy it: no pressure as I didn't really think that I would win! Well, as soon as 25 years were mentioned, I took one look at June, while shaking my head in disbelief. Then the marvelous rail and face shaped glittering award and a certificate as well…………………and then the (totally unexpected) cheque!. I was also extremely pleased to see David Maidment recognised. His achievement very appropriately wins the whole night for me and the standing ovation that he received was very well deserved. It was really worth being there just for that. Thanks again to all who were involved in this event (I am now drinking my coffee out of the Rail Seventeen cup at work!).”
