The Mens Shed at Bayview was the recipient of the first load of logs which originated from the vegetation clearance on the branch line between Thornton Junction and Leven.
(Permalink) Leven Levenmouth New station Thornton Junction  East Fife Central Junction: Ken Whyte, Chair of the Shed at Bayview, said: 'One of the skills we were hoping to develop was forest craft. When we heard that Network Rail were clearing along the railway line prior to work commencing on the new Levenmouth Railway Link we got in touch. We asked if we could get some logs for 'The Shed' and boy did they deliver!
'We will cut the logs into manageable pieces and use them for a variety of projects. The Oak and Ash will be turned into custom made plaques and longer pieces will be turned into seating benches which we will donate to the new church hall at Wellesley Parish Church.'
