Hello,
I'm creating an online map showing the locations of yards that
scrapped BR steam locos.
I am after the following information, if anybody can help.
Addresses, grid references or whatever, for the following areas:-
The yards around the Rotherham / Sheffield areas (e.g. Beighton,
Beighton Junction, Killamarsh).
The locations of the Wigan / Ince scrapyards.
The yards around Risca, Bynea and Morriston, South Wales.
The location of Kings, Norwich.
California Sidings, Sharpness.
And any others not shown on my map!
I have the Steam For Scrap books, all four of them. These are good,
but they don't give too much emphasis on the actual physical location
of the yards in most cases.
I have been using flashearth.com - in Microsoft VE mode, this is
pretty good, and gives lon/lat details too.
The map (so far) is here:-

Thanks for your help.
Very Best Wishes,
Bob.
