Woodham's scrapyard on Barry Island

A general view seen in 1966.
Not all of these locomotives escaped the cutter's torch, but most did! At least 213 were rescued for preservation, or to supply parts for others. 45699 'Galatea' was one of the latter but even that has long since been restored and been running on the main network again.

An old scan from a long lost 35mm slide. Best viewed large.
