NJ Transit Comet III 5005 meets the claw in Neptune Yard while in the process of being scrapped. An interesting sight to see for sure.
Scrap lead fetches in the UK about £ 1500 per ton (zinc even more). Scrap metal can be stored almost infinitely. You can't do that with the millions of benefit claimants in the UK. The poor might also not wish to sit still when treated like scrap.
The fifth image in this series of images I took in and around downtown Toronto. The tall ship Empire Sandy, which runs chartered tours along Toronto's waterfront was originally built as an Englishman/ Larch Deep Sea-class tugboat for war service by the British government in 1943. After the war she served a number of different roles under different names. In the early 1970s she was to be sold for scrap, but fortunately got a new lease on life when she was bought by a new owner who had her completely rebuilt and converted as a three-masted schooner in the style of the 1880s.

Meh, I had to upload this.
At the moment, I hate it.
Nevertheless, much time was spent on it.
Thus, I decided to upload it.
Here, we have an example of a frame that did not work out.
In some situations, the arms might work, if I had made them real arms.
Sucky legs don't help this, but I was experimenting with a leg connection.
Suffice to say, it failed.
Under these circumstances, I probably won't accept critcism.
Consider this scrapped.
KK?
So; how is everybody?
:3
Alright, I'll keep it.
Yes, I spelled it wrong. You've been assalted.
A Northshore Mining train is shown crossing Highway 61 at Silver Bay with material that could not be salvaged and made into pellets or sinter feed and is being moved to the Milepost 7 disposal site. This move, called the scrap train, runs infrequently so we were lucky to catch it.
The classic Lake Boat Manistee has just been pulled out of its long time resting place in Toledo by G tugs Michigan and Massachusetts. A third G tug Colorado holds the American Valor off to the side to assist the extraction of the Manistee from the slip where they were both docked. Hanging back by the Craig Bridge the Beverly MI, a 71-tonne, bollard-pull, harbour and coastal towing tug, stands by to take charge of the Manistee's final trip to the scrapper. The sun chose this moment to break through and illuminate the Manistee's final trip on the Maumee River. Toledo, OH 3/28/2022

Yesterday I posted a photo of Union Pacific SD70M 4236, which had recently been parted out at Neff Yard in Kansas City. The list of 70Ms scrapped also includes UP 4777, 4047, 4056, and 4647.
A quick search of my photo archive revealed I had captured UP 4056 leading a Global 1, Illinois to City of Industry, California intermodal train in Salt Lake City, Utah on November 5, 2017. The 4056 even had a rare repaint, complete with the big flag logo.
The train included one of Union Pacific's 50 ArroWedge containers, designed to reduce wind drag and conserve fuel. All 50 would be removed from service during Precision Scheduled Railroading, and be stored and stashed away at (you guessed it) Global 1 in Chicago.
