Sorry this is late, but I don't really think either of these sites would justify a report of their own because they're not urbex per se, but since they're derelict I thought I'd throw them up in one thread.

CF Booth Scrapyard, Rotherham
Went here back in February with my Dad, permission visit. Not a lot to say other than that (as mentioned in my Eastleigh thread) this could be one of my last visits to the scrapyard, given that there's so little left to see in modern traction. Still, having seen the locos here in service or stored before, it was worth a visit.

Apparently you're not allowed to take photos of Underground stock here due to ridiculous draconian legislation put down by TfL but I couldn't care less about what they think, so here's what I got.

Battlefield Line, Leicestershire
I missed out on the main attractions this time round (the peak, 45015 and the 73, 73105), but I already got shots of those which you can enjoy here (http://www.flickr.com/photos/truebritishmetal/sets/72157629687140041/). My Dad and I went here just because we were on a loose end and to check out some new stuff, so here it is. Not a lot else to say I'm afraid!

Sorry for the lack of interior shots, but they were all locked up.

Pics showing for me. Don't know why they are so bothered about the old underground trains.
