82-year-old David Young from Holyhead has sadly been one of the 16 people who died in a funicular crash in Lisbon.

Known for his love of transport, David was pursuing his hobby when the tragedy occurred.

Originally from Perthshire, he moved to Hollyhead in 1980 where he worked as a customs officer.

Mr Young’s family paid tribute to him in the following statement: “Andrew David Kenneth Young was known to most as Dave.

“He was raised in Auchterarder, Perthshire. He moved to Holyhead in 1980 where he had a long career as a customs officer.
