Here it is, the original lure to the world of Urban Exploration (for me). A relic just sitting behind the train station. So locked up, so derelict, so forbidden, so damned tempting.
Not entirely certain of its history, it's near the train station so I thought it may have been a workshop for the trains and carriages at one point but it might not be that old and a little bit of research hasn't brought me any closer to knowing.
This is what I could capture on my phone (once again I was wasting time before another commitment the day I took these) You could consider this a 'part 1, an eventual part 2 will involve my actually managing to find a way in and climbing the stairs to the first floor - but only if I think it's safe.
So, here we go. Enjoy the pictures
The building in question from across the railway tracks
the 'shed' viewed from the right-hand side
a better look
a look into the smaller shed attached to it, nothing much to see in here but interesting to see the decay in here
a view of the building from the front, it looks like there were more windows on the first floor but they've been filled in with breezeblocks at some point, so have some of the lower ones and the ones that aren't a firmly blocked up
Left-hand side of the building, you can see that the glass in the window on the top floor has all been either broken or stolen
looking in through the gap in one of the doors, looking at all the rubbish on the floor, I'm clearly not the first person to want to get in here - I do want to climb those stairs, if it's safe and see the first floor, even if there's nothing there but more rubbish.
Through one of the windows - I'm definitely not the first person around this area, one of the local graffiti artists has got in and left a mark
the other side of the big room with the 'yuck' graffiti
That's all I have, hopefully I'll find time (and the right protective shoe wear) to get in and do a part 2 at some point before the year's end.
EDIT: Thanks everyone for helping me decide it's a warehouse and (*deep sigh of mild disappointment*) nothing to do with trains and/or fixing them. Oh well, can't blame a girl for letting her imagination run wild so close to the train tracks
