A line up of mothballed English Electric Stephenson four-axle shunters are seen outside the maintenance shed at the former Redcar steelworks. Numbers 260, 269, 257 and 265 are just four of the remaining shunters that were mothballed in 2010. These shunters were rated at 750bhp and used for moving the steel torpedo wagons around the complex. With the complete closure of the plant in October 2015, their future is uncertain, many having already left the site.
