Apparently this wagon isn't grounded - just on a seperate length of track at a lower level...

The body of this has recently been scrapped (July 2003) but the underframe remains for the time being...

Robert,
Whereabouts loation?
Was in the area Friday 22nd and wonder if visible from main lines?

I think it must still be in the same place as here - but just without the body now. Seems odd it has remained here so long - presumably an underframe sat here is no use to anyone? You'd be lucky to pinpoint it from the mainline I think especially if passing at speed...

Just noticed bridge in background so would probably need a Barry train or similar?

Ah yes the local slow trains that pass on the far side of Canton would be a better bet - never done it myself...

Hi, yeah it is in the same place as in photo, just get a return from Ninian Park to Cardiff c.£2 return, you'll need bins to get a good look. I have a photo which I will send to Ben some point today
Good Luck

I have been informed by staff that this underframe was buried under a new built road within depot some years ago.
