Dalzell Steel Works
An early afternoon arrival of concast slabs at BSC Dalzell in 1988. In the background left are the cooling towers and gasometers of BSC Ravenscraig where the slabs were cast. Locomotive DH9 spent a lot of time shuttling between the two works on the extensive private railway network. The flatbed wagons were somewhat cobbled together. After closure of the Craig the line into the slab bay at Dalzell was realigned to allow access from Motherwell Up Loop on the main line. The building to the left no longer stands.
