Framed Print of Captain Huish, Late General Manager of the North-Western Railway, 1858. Creator: Unknown
Captain Huish, Late General Manager of the North-Western Railway, 1858. Engraving from a photograph by Mayall. As soon as the Captain's intention to resign was communicated to the directors, they met and unanimously passed a resolution expressing their sense of his great ability, integrity, unwearied industry and steady devotion to the interests of the company...and of their personal regard and esteem. To this compliment was annexed an addendum in the shape of a grant of £3000...At the early age of sixteen [Captain Huish] entered the East India Company's service, and reached Calcutta at the close of the Burmese war. He returned to England in 1835, when railways were first beginning to attract a good deal of attention. He secured the appointment of secretary to the Glasgow and Greenock Railway, where he remained four years, and then left to assume the management of the company then known as the Grand Junction, whose head offices were at Liverpool. On the amalgamation of the various lines which now constitute the London and North-Western Railway, Captain Huish removed to London, and became general manager, a position he maintained with much credit upwards of eighteen years'.
