Leaves off the Line

Taking a slow train into Manchester Victoria today, the activities of Network Rail’s tree fellers was laid bare…with a vengeance. They have spared no trackside vegetation for miles in North Manchester in their battle against that nasty slippy leaf mulch which causes so much trouble every Autumn.

For all our sakes, however, they should urgently employ some litter pickers to follow the flails….

….because the new bare land now displays tonnes of rubbish fly-tipped there by the locals.
