James King was my wife's (Cathy Adam) grandfather, I tried to get his fatal accident enquiry from the Paisley and Johnstone libraries but it has long since been lost. The train company took no blame for the accident and my mother-in-law's family got no compensation.

re The recent appointment of Ken McCallum to head of MI5.
