Jack was the Principal Railway Architect with Queensland Rail and presided over the design and construction of the Redbank Railway Workshops. Opened in 1958, the Redbank workshops eased pressure on the busy Ipswich Railway Workshops and was central to the introduction of diesel electric locomotives. The Redbank Railway Workshops are now Queensland's major railway workshops and are known as the "Redbank Centre of Excellence" (1).
