Radio 4 at 9pm   
There is a programme tonight about how Network Rail clear leaves off
the line. The chances of me remembering to switch the radio on at 9 are
nill but I did notice this in the paper.

Thanks. I've just set my radio to record it because I'm sure I'll forget to 
listen to it live as well!

21:00           Leaves on the Line
The land owned by our railways, bordering 20,000 miles of track, is home 
to hundreds of different plants and animals, including many rare and 
endangered species. Enter the railway industry's first tree specialist, 
Neil Strong. Neil's task is to manage the enormous area of land owned by 
Network Rail. His estate runs through all of the country's national 
parks, takes in every different habitat found in Britain, and contains 
330 designated sites of special scientific interest. And lots and lots 
of trees.

Mark Stephen explores the wealth of plants and animals that live along 
Britain's railway lines and discovers just what happens when the wrong 
kind of leaves get on the track.
