Dolphin Square Commercial Waste

"Dacorum Must do Better in Tring!" says Lib Dem Councillor

For the second time in a fortnight now there have been justifiable complaints of sacks of commercial waste left out at the entrance to Dolphin Square as you approach from the Frogmore Street (East) Car Park. Some of the bags were marked "Cawleys", some "Grundon". Some of the bags were even marked "Dacorum Borough Council Waste Collection Service". Obviously they were awaiting collection by the appropriate companies - including DBC itself. However, dumping 16 bags and boxes of waste in a well-used public area of the town over the weekend is not acceptable. The Liberal Democrats have reported this as a fly-tipping incident on reference 523970 and have sent in 4 photographs. An alternative area on private ground must be found for commercial waste awaiting collection.

Could this be a First? Recycling London Underground Trains.

Actually not. There's a well developed second-hand trade in refurbished or adapted locomotives and occasionally multiple unit sets. For example, in 1966 six 4-car sets and six 3-car sets of London Underground stock built in 1923 were converted for use on the Isle of Wight Line and again in 1989 nine 2-car sets of 1938 London Underground vintage stock was modified, refurbished and also put to use on the Isle of Wight.
