TIMBER!!

Hillwalking, chickens and - err - garden railways.
Country flag
This afternoon whilst we were out I almost lost part of the railway.
A couple of days a go a branch fell from a massive 3 trunked sycamore in an adjoining garden.
When we arrived home today I discovered a larger branch had crashed down onto the rack high level station doing a small amount of damage. It also landed on two of my grandchildren's bikes, the train shed and the chicken run.
18 months ago it was identified by an arborist as showing signs of rot.
Time for the owner, it is a rented house, to get it made safe and ideally cut down.
 
I contacted the occupier immediately and he is getting in touch with the owner PDQ.
He has 2 young children who play under the tree. So, quick action I hope although I probably won't get to know immediately as we are away on holiday from Saturday.
