Jim Harkness

Jim Harkness was our health and safely officer who sadly died of cancer in July
He passed away on Monday
27th July, at Workington hospital having being diagnosed with an
inoperable abdominal cancer only a few weeks before
Jim was in the late stages of a painstaking restoration of his 1950s Daimler
car. Having had a lifetime's experience of operating and restoring vehicles, he
was a source of wisdom and inspiration to all of us in the Trust, and will be
sadly missed.
His funeral took place at Distington crematorium on August 4th
to which many trust members and friends travelled on 378 , a vehicle which Jim
spent many hours working on.
