About this deal

Experts warn XL Bully ban won't work because 'vague' definition will mean it will be hard to root out banned animals and police don't have time to enforce it Her staff consisted of two feline assistant stationmasters: Tama's sister, Chibi ( ちび, born May 12, 2000), and Tama's mother, an orange tabby cat named Miiko ( ミーコ, October 3, 1998–July 20, 2009). In early 2020 Onslaught was still going strong as the station cat. At some point Rosie and Jumble appeared as engine-shed cats, and Jumble fathered a litter of kittens with Rosie.

She was much missed by staff and commuters alike, and a plaque to her memory has been placed at the station. Funds raised in a Go-fund-me campaign for possible vet's fees were used for this after her death, and the remainder was given to a charity that rehomes street cats.

Kipper was the last signal-box cat in the area, but at one time there were Nelson at BAGULEY FOLD, Amoss at ASHTON MOSS NORTH and Selwyn at DIGGLE. There was also Marmalade ( left), who was the resident signal-box cat at BREWERY SIDINGS when David Ingham started working there in the mid-1990s, but he was made redundant in summer 1998 when Brewery Sidings box closed. However, says David, 1998 was in the days when the railways still looked after their staff and arrangements were made for Marmalade to transfer to Diggle Junction box, the late supervisor Ian Gordon receiving numerous scratches as Marmalade fought against being put in the cat box for moving. He replaced Selwyn, who had recently died, at Diggle and remained until the mid-2000s, when a new signalman complained to management, and signal-box cats on his patch were made redundant. Marmalade was retired to Ainsworth, near Bury.

It isn't clear when she arrived there, but she was certainly around early in 2010 and at the time was thought to be quite an old cat. The following year, in October 2011, she was rehomed and went to live in Brightlingsea, but she seems to have gone missing from there about a month later and was not seen again.
