  From the EKR page on FB...........
  
  "We are sorry to announce that we have been hit by vandals and arsonists. This is a gutting time for our volunteers who work so hard to make the EKR a place for everyone to enjoy. We have lost a lot of equipment, power tools, generator, recovered artifacts and more.
  
  If anyone has any information please email our General Manager on gm@eastkentrailway.co.uk
  
  We will be asking for donations and for offers of equipment if anyone has any for disposal, thanks for your kind consideration.".....
  
  Such a shame after all the hard work done by the volunteers.

  I try to be neutral and polite but it is hard and getting even more difficult at times.

  Thanks for posting Jan. I can think of a naughty word for anyone who perpetrates this kind of stuff, beginning with W.

  I can think of plenty of words to call those who did this none of them suitable for the ears of those who view this.
  
  Thank goodness people are donating, just checked and over £3000 have been raised so far.
