Colin Edwards

With great sadness we have to report the passing of our friend and colleague Colin Edwards today. He passed away peacefully with his family in attendance. A very long-standing member of the Kent & East Sussex Railway and, before ill health overtook him, a valued and experienced volunteer on the 4253 restoration project. R I P Colin.
