Any idea where that was, as that truck in the bottom of the pic was owned by the Foundry that used to be opposite the railway station just up the road from me until it shut about 15 years ago and is now a housing estate.

Yes, it was Doncaster. According to the description this scrapyard was located "at the York-Doncaster highroad": https://beeldbank.spaarnestadphoto.com/search.pp?showpicture=40495&page=1&pos=3 busmansholiday 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dyslexic Viking Posted December 7, 2022 Share Posted December 7, 2022 Norway late 70s or early 80s. The big estate is a 1960 Plymouth it was on the road until 1982. There is no scrap notice on it so may still be alive in a barn somewhere. Remspoor, D.E, RayMK and 3 others 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The railway bridge has been widened at some stage, as one can see the inner arched bridge and the newer girder one in front of it. The very pretty little Fiat 500 has a London number, but that doesn't mean too much! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
