Description
The early part of 2013 saw DRS clear out a huge load of their old redundant Class 20,37 & 47 locos for scrap, most of not all ended up in booths of Rotherham. A walk round the yard (which was organised!) to take a look at the yard, including wagons going for scrap and London Underground stock.

Enjoy!
