Christopher LohanBorn in Dublin in 1930, Chris Lohan moved to Canada in 1951 at the age twenty-one and immediately fell in love with the country, vowing to see it from coast to coast, a promise he has now kept many times over.
After starting with the Canadian Naional Railway gangs, Mr. Lohan eventually began working for the Canadian Pacific Railway as a baggage handler. He moved up to switch tender, yardman, yard foreman, conductor, yard master, and, finally, terminal supervisor of "The Nickel Capital of the World": Sudbury, Ontario.
Eventually, Mr. Lohan moved into safety, directing and chairing several organizations, culminating in his roles as chairperson of the Safety Section of the American Association of Railways and the founding chairperson of the Railroad Association of Canada Safety Committee, before his retirement in 1995.
Mr. Lohan now lives in Hanmer, Ontario, with his wife of sixty years, Helena. They have five children, eleven grandchildren, and ten great grandchildren.
