Welcome to the Engineering Web Site for 72010 - HENGIST
Geoff Turner 1956 - 2026
It is with great sadness that the Standard Steam Locomotive Company have to announce the death of Geoff Turner, our Engineering Director. Geoff passed away on Saturday 28 March 2026. Geoff was a key member of the team that reorganised the company in 2011 and created the foundations for our organisation. Geoff was instrumental in forming the successful relationship between SSLC and CTL Seal/Diamond Group. Geoff will be sorely missed by his family and colleagues.
