LISTEN: Rob Davis from Network Rail says their autumn campaign aims to remove leaves from the lines - 29/09/18

Train bosses in Kent have told km-fm they've spent the whole year planning so hopefully we don't hear about delays because of 'leaves on the line'.

Equipment is being brought in especially to keep the tracks clear of the thousands of tonnes of leaves that fall from trees and shrubs. 

Any that do get on the line can form a thin layer that acts like black ice on the roads in the winter - affecting braking and how fast vehicles can go.
