Chris Green (railway manager)

[1][2][3] Green was born in Winchester and educated at St Paul's School, London and Oriel College, Oxford (where he read history).

[5][6] In October 1989, Green briefly appeared on BBC Challenge Anneka in an episode covering the re-opening of Northiam railway station.

[7] At the beginning of 1992 he was appointed managing director of the InterCity sector, with a remit to create a new integrated and profitable business (from that April) which he achieved with a particular emphasis on customer service.

He resigned from this post 14 months later in July 1996, after reportedly clashing with the organisation's chairman Jocelyn Stevens amid allegations of irregularities including inappropriate expenses claims and unauthorised spending.

[18][19][20] Green has also served as a non-executive director of Connex Rail; chairman of The Railway Forum, 2005–2006; an advisory board member of Cranfield University; and a trustee of the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic Orchestra.
