We can prove this using generating functions.

FORMULA
a(n) is obtained by using the generating function N_{1} =1+yN_{2}^4 and (1-N_{2} +2yN_{2}^4 -yN_{2}^{5} +xyN_{2}^{6} +y^{2}N_{2}^{8})(1+yN_{2}^{4}-xyN_{2}^{5})+x^3y^{2}N_{2}^{9} =0, where N_{1}(x,y)=\sum_{n}N_{1}'(2,n)x^{2}y^{n} and N_{1}'(2,n) is the number of A'Campo forests with co-dimension 2; N_{2}(x,y)=\sum_{n}N_{2}'(2,n)x^{2}y^{n} where N_{2}'(2,n) is the number of partial configurations.
EXAMPLE
For n=3 we have a(3)=30 A'Campo forests of co-dimension 2.
