Eamonn Seddon was the General Manager of the Don River Railway.

Trains and railways had always been a big part of Eamonn’s life, and it was an iconic Tasmanian wilderness railway that lured him to Tasmania from his birthplace in north Wales.

Eamonn also told Chris Sayer of his love for theatre and music, which had taken him around Great Britain and Europe. He also spoke from experience about tourism in the Tamar Valley.

Eammon sadly passed away in late 2024.
