Bristol man quits job to build railway departure boards
A Bristol man has quit his job to build railway departure boards for a living.
Russell Pirie, a software engineer from Bradley Stoke, was inspired to make a homemade version of the station displays after becoming fascinated by them on his daily commute.
The displays have proven popular with commuters and people with autism, and Russell's family have been recruited to help manufacture them.
People living abroad have even bought them, to track train activity at their local stations back in the UK.
