Thornton Yard

Row upon row of stored coal hoppers occupy the sidings at Thornton Yard on 31 January 2009, with some doubtless having been relocated here following the recent demise of Perth New Yard. There appears to be little activity in the yard at present, with all Longannet traffic now being routed via Stirling and Alloa. In the background a 158 passes with a Fife Circle train.
