Gerard Francis Gisborne Twistleton-Wykeham- "Gerry" Fiennes was one of the first senior officers of what was then British Railways to become involved at a prominent level in support of the FR immediately following his retirement from the national network. He was General Manager of the Eastern Region at retirement (in which post he must have been well acquainted with Alan Pegler, who was a member of the short lived Eastern Region Advisory Board) and became the Deviationists' "Man on the Board" joining the FRCo Board in 1968, becoming a Director of the FRS in 1970. He left both posts in 1974.
