There are quite a few disused carriages (as well as a variety of locos) stored north of Burton upon Trent. I noted a TC set as well as several MK1 and MK2 rakes. Is there an up to date list of what's there and are they awaiting scrapping or rescuing?

Searching here http://www.cs.rhrp.org.uk/se/search.asp for Burton upon Trent (Nemesis Rail) should help with identifying what is there although that doesn't include the operational vehicles.

The unit is CIG 1753 which isn't for scrapping - see https://www.nsers.org/1753.html.

It is likely that some of the more decrepid coaches form a wall behind which the operational stock is kept and are used for component recovery.
