_The Evening Post_, 18 May 1925:
THIRTY-NINE YEARS’ SERVICE
MR. TROUP’S RETIREMENT
On the eve of his departure from the Railway Department, Mr. G. A. #Troup, officer in charge of the architectural branch, who retired … after thirty-nine of service, was met by the members of his office staff who were desirous of making him a small presentation … and to bid him farewell.
Several speakers eulogised Mr. Troup, referring to the sterling value of his service to the Department….
Mr. Troup has risen from the bottom of the ladder to the top…. He has left several structures as monuments to his labours, notably the Railway head offices and the #Dunedin Railway Station.
In replying, Mr. Troup said that … it was not as easy as one might imagine.… The happiest recollections he would carry with him were of the last few years of his service … with the architectural branch of the service, directing its activities since its inception in 1919. It had always been his desire and aim to be just and to treat those under him as he would have had them treat him had he been otherwise situated.
