I WAS saddened to read that the family of Sir Nigel Gresley do not wish to see a mallard depicted on his statue to be unveiled at King’s Cross Station (Mallard duck ditched on rail statue, The Press, April 2).
When I go up to King’s Cross to admire the statue, I will console myself with seeing the duck in my mind’s eye and shall think of it as a “malade imaginaire”.
