Eustace Missenden : ウィキペディア英語版 | Eustace Missenden Sir Eustace Missenden OBE〔http://www.tssa.org.uk/about/single-or-return/chapter21.htm〕 (1886–1973) was a British railwayman, successively the last General Manager of the Southern Railway and the first Chairman of the Railway Executive. ==Early life==
Eustace James Missenden was born 3 March 1886,〔http://www.steamindex.com/people/managers.htm〕 the son of a South Eastern and Chatham Railway station master.〔Bonavia (1981)〕 He left school at an early age, which according to Bonavia gave him a chip on his shoulder.〔Bonavia, Michael R. (1993). ''Railways South East'', 3, 182〕 In May 1899, Missenden started work as a junior clerk with the South Eastern Railway, at the not very important station at Bishopsbourne, on the Elham Valley line, earning 7 s a week. In November 1902, after a spell at New Romney, he was posted to Lydd, on the edge of Romney Marsh, and his pay went up to 17s a week. For a staff photograph, which must have been taken shortly after he arrived (aged sixteen and a half), he stood at the extreme edge of the group, as befitted his junior status, but his shiny shoes and stand-up collar (the only one in the group) show that he intended to make an impression.
