Re: Track and turn outs.
Bear in mind the haulage cost if you’re thinking of bidding!
Also you say “turn outs” but the tender describes them as a “common crossing”. Are we sure they’re turn outs?
They’re in Keith up here in North East Scotland, only half an hour away from where I live.
Transporting 55’ long rails from here to Yorkshire will not be cheap. There’s over 32t in total too so two trucks would be needed.

Re: Track and turn outs.
Sadly, with a minimum bid of 5k plus probably the same for transport, we just don't have the funds for it

I do hope that at least one individual on the board is also on the heritage NR tender list, you never know what up for disposal next.

Re: Track and turn outs.
Is It not possible to try to seek possible track nearer to home ,to reduce the hauLage cost , and buying cost? That would surely seem the better sensible option.
There could be a lot more track to come from the newbridge P/ way yard on the NYMR . It’s definitely worth enquiring about in the future. And ithe hauLage cost shouldn't be to bad to.
