Railway Conversations with Doc Frank

#16 – Conversation with Stephen Allday


Listen Later

Doc Frank chats with Stephen Allday from Sydney in Australia. Steve can look back at a railway career of over 50 years and just last year he resolved to “collect” a number of accreditation from professional bodies for engineers working in the railway industry, an initiative he called “Project Self-Esteem”. We talk about the roles of the various institutions he got accredited from, the importance of understanding the other side, railway operations and the inspiration of others. A very insightful conversation which I hope you will enjoy and maybe get inspired from yourself.
