The texture dat file and lotting by @Simmer2
This is a historical recycle centre with a twist. It lowers the city's garbage production as 20 %, the same amount as the Maxis Recycle Center, but Steptoe & Son offers the recycling with much lower cost. However they are not up to modern health and safety standard and thus the lot is really an eyesore. Not only it pollutes the environment, but it has negative impact on the park effect and mayor's rating, not to mention that is a NIMBY building.
There are three different sized lots and each of those have a slight garbage disposal capacity. Thus these lots can help your garbage problem. I have felt that SC4's Vanilla's Landfills have too inefficient and cost too much, so I have often used user created garbage facilities, such as Simpeg's garbage barge. My lots are intended for early and small cities to stop the garbage to accumulate.
Simmer2 has been invaluable help to implement this idea and he has made custom lot texture, which really complement the lot. I have made the BAT building and most of the props are from splendid Historic Harbour. I am very pleased to see how the lot, the textures, the BAT and the props really complete each other.
The 3x3 Scrap Yard lot has functional and pathed STR rail connection. Both passenger and freight trains can travel through the lot. This railtransit lot required NBVC's recycle center as a dependency.
The BAT is HD and both Maxis Night and Dark Night versions are available. The building has a custom foundation and it can tolerate moderate slopes.
Note on custom query. I have made custom queries for these lots and I have used correct Maxis data Ids. However there is an error on monthly garbage disposed information. It shows incorrect amount disposed and there seems to be a decimal error. When the query informs that 10 tons garbage was disposed, the actual amount is 1 ton. Please note when reading the query information. I don't have skills to correct this error as it seems to in the Maxis files.
