Coventry 'Train Graveyard'

[Goldie87]

Got invited late one friday night to take a look at this place. Wasnt a very good time to take pics, but it was a very interesting place to look round nonetheless. Unfortunately it looks like the local chavs have been going in and have smashed up some of the stuff that is stored here

Yeah its a museum, but when i first heard about it someone called it 'graveyard' so that got me into the habit of calling it that as well lol. Not sure when it is open though.
