Above are some photos taken this morning of work on the northern side of the line where undergrowth was cleared recently (photo on post no 53).

Is this morning's landslip related to this or elsewhere? I can imagine lines could have been closed as a precaution in case the ballast being dropped by the diggers to create access slid onto the tracks. Looking at google maps the site access appears to be through someone's garden.

There was no work in progress on the south side by Wenzels and the car park today, although it doesn't look finished there.

Another update on the landslip sites in Sonning Cutting. Work is still going on on both sides. To the south by Wenzels the road is narrowed as before and earth is still being brought up to the layby to be disposed of. Opposite on the north side the profile has been stepped.
