Original Toronto Star caption: Growing scrap heap: Metro is becoming just a bigger version of this kind of vehicle graveyard; police say. With the recession in the steel industry; auto wreckers are reluctant to take in the cars and; if they do; pay only a fraction of previous prices. Police estimate between 4;000 and 5;000 of Metro's 1 million cars have been abandoned.
