jamesmc Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Saw online auction for equipment from Thomsons well known Stockton scrapyard this week. A quick google search reveals the yard is being cleared for redevelopment. Such a shame this was a massive place at one time with extensive sidings and many shunters. http://www.gazettelive.co.uk/business/business-news/end-era-stockton-scrap-yard-12586661 Regards James Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Saunders Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 The majority of the internal user wagons were cut up around December 2015 leaving what appears to be the ex Tiphook Bogie scrap carriers! From what I understand it has been ran by recievers for a while! Mark Saunders Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
