- John Marchbank (19 January 1883 – 25 March 1946) was a Scottish trade unionist. Born in in Dumfriesshire, Marchbank worked in his youth as an assistant to his father, who was a shepherd. He moved to work for the Caledonian Railway Company when he reached eighteen and, other than a short period in the , spent the remainder of his working life on railway matters. In 1906, Marchbank joined the Amalgamated Society of Railway Servants. This became part of the new National Union of Railwaymen (NUR) in 1912, and Marchbank was elected to its executive committee. He served as the union's president from 1922 to 1924, the last year of which he also served on the General Council of the Trades Union Congress (TUC). In 1933, he was elected as general secretary of the NUR, and was also re-elected to the TUC General Council. He additionally served as vice-president of the International Transport Workers' Federation from 1935. Marchbank retired from his posts at the NUR 1943, but was asked to remain in his international post until the first post-war conference of the federation. Ultimately, he died a few months before it was held. (en)
