The Brakevan / Engineers Plough alas is still at Shenfield Station! Ripple Lane West Yard has two roads of Cartics, Brake Vans, Parcels vehicles and other assorted vehicles left isolated when the yard was reorganised. These have been here for over a decade. They are a complete eyesore, a very poor advert for modern railfreight and give the impression of a clapped out run down mode of transport to the travelling public. Maybe DBS will bring a breaker and dispose of them one day. You don't see Eddie Stobart putting their wrecks in the public eye!
