Linda’s garden backs onto the station platform which is how eight-year-old Daisy became a regular at the station – she would be there from the first train of the day until the last train at night according to Linda.
She said, “She just decided she would meet, greet and get yummy treats from the commuters.
"She was a gregarious, loving, empathic and a very friendly kitty.”

Many people said the station ‘won’t be the same’ without her.
