The Bowerman Family

Joshua Bowerman

Joshua Bowerman as a child loved trains and as he grew older his passion for them never abated. It was a natural that he would eventually take up mechanical engineering so that he could design engines and cars, civil engineering to design and layout tracks and any other discipline having to do with trains. It was Christopher Morliere who recognized the potential of this young man, and it was Bowerman that first made the impossible possible - to bring train stations to Malton and overcome the difficulties of getting them across the varied terrain.
