Tinsley

I really need to access a relevant OS map here, but as they are stored away at the moment, the following may be wrong...

 

According to my notes, this picture of 37008 with a northbound train was taken from Cohen's scrapyard at Tinsley on 19 April 1979. Is this view on the ex-GC line from Darnall to Rotherham Central? River Don is in the foreground and those cooling towers could be at Blackburn Meadows. Is that Templeborough steelworks too? Either way, it's a lost world.
