Tom Rose, 2014 obituary

Tom passed away aged 80. In his younger days he flew aeroplanes and drove exotic fast cars and full size traction engines.

In the 1970s he joined the Engineerium in Hove. Later on he moved to Christies of South Kensington, during which time I joined to catalogue the famous Coluzzi model train collection in Lausanne-Switzerland. This was very hard work, but a fabulous experience. He was a lovely man to know. CL
