Summary[edit]

Description
English: Woodhams' Scrapyard, Barry
209 steam locomotives are here awaiting their fate. The number would rise to a peak of 217 within 6 months but remarkably only 4 were broken up. Over the next 20 years or so the railway preservation movement saved 213 with the last leaving in 1990. So far 150 have been returned to steam. After 53 years I've had trouble determining the exact location of this view but I've made the subject location the Barry Docks hydraulic pumping station the chimney of which is just about visible in the right-side distance.
