I think the major problem, and I have spoken to train driver friends about this, is that the trees grow much nearer the lineside now. By this I mean that they are not managed in the same way they where years ago. I think that conservation groups have had a lot to do with this by getting preservation orders on trees and hedgerows. I am all for conservation and would support anything that kept the countryside green, but I have to say that if this is the case then surely safety has to come into it somewhere.
I would love the comments of anyone on the forum who is a current railwayman. Is what I have said correct?. If so what do you think about it.
Paul.
