Leigh Robinson had everything to live for - a popular
financial advisor who was planning a holiday with his latest work
bonus. But at the age of 37 his life was tragically cut short.

Leigh, of Caldew Avenue, Gillingham, was killed on the railway
line between Rochester and Chatham after a night out celebrating
with friends.

He was electrocuted as he attempted to walk home along the track
after missing the last train.

His dad Tony said Leigh's death had left a big hole in their
family. He added: "Leigh had everything to live for. Everybody who
knew him loved him. We are all devastated."

Tony described his son as a level-headed, intelligent man who
loved life. He said the former Rainham Mark pupil, who had a degree
from Reading University, worked hard and enjoyed spending his wages
on doing up his home.

Leigh had lots of friends and was held in high esteem by his
colleagues at Barclays Bank in Kings Hill and at his previous job
at Lloyds Bank in Chatham.

Workmates said Leigh had a dry sense of humour, which often kept
them entertained.

Leigh had been out drinking his younger brother Shaun, 35, and a
group of friends on the night of his death.

He told his dad he wanted to let his hair down after being given
a pay rise and a bonus for completing a major project at work.

An inquest at Maidstone's County Hall heard how Leigh was last
seen on CCTV footage just before 3am.

Leigh can be seen walking into Rochester train station unsteady
on his feet and staggering slightly on the platform.

He appears to fall over near a bench, before walking along from
the platform away from the camera.

The last shot of Leigh is at 2.48am when he disappears from view
in the distance. His body was found 200 metres away from the
station by a train driver the following morning.

Tony said: "Sadly, Leigh could not hold his drink and there had
been instances in the past where he had fallen over after drinking.
When I heard in the inquest about him falling over near the bench,
all I could think was 'I just wish he had laid down on that bench
and gone to sleep'."

The inquest recorded a verdict of accidental death.

Coroner Roger Sykes said: "Leigh's death was nothing other than
a most tragic accident. Leigh was significantly intoxicated at the
time of his death.

"Clearly he walked from the platform onto the railway track and
at some point came into contact with the live rail. He would have
been killed instantly. It is a tragic loss of a very promising
life."
