    Will they every see the light of day? I don't know. It's hard to say. Cracked piston's. Broken frame's. All hopes, faded away. Some saved, some forgot. Just left there to waste and rot. Over the years, iron and tears, have been preying on their fears. Some hope, some just wait, for their own inevitable fates.

Dai Woodham liked cutting GWR locos as there was lots of extra copper in the fireboxes and he'd only paid the weight in steel. He made a pile of cash scrapping those locos!

    213 engines from Barry scrapyard made it into preservation, butt this is the worst thing British Railways have done to steam engines, after the last steamer was withdrawn in August 1968, things where changing, the railway got a lot of competition of the Road, and things got worse

      please be fair though, by 1968 steam was obsolete and outdated, granted the whole modernisation scheme was an utter shambles, but scrapping steam engines especially the ridiculously huge number or pre-grouping designs still in service made perfect sense. The trouble with BR throughout its existence was it was never able to truly achieve its intended goals ( think the original modernisation proposal with steam lasting as long as any non-electrified sections of truck, or the ATP, IC250 etc etc) politics always forced their hand, leaving us with no ATP, very little electrified networks, very rubbish early diesels and generally pretty dubious 'garden-shed' engineered stuff towards their end (think 158, 91 etc)

      I read an interesting statistic this very morning. Dai Woodham bought a lot of railway wagons as well as locomotives . The wagons were easier to break so they had the gas axe put through them before the locos. The locos were left in one side for when the wagons ran out. The article suggest up to 90% of the steam locos that went into Woodham brothers scrapyard, that up to 200 locos came out again, and have been preserved they are still running to this day. Dai Woodham even allowed preservation groups to start loco restoration in his yard. So don't cry. Steam loco Preservation would be very different scene if it wasn't for Dai Woodham and his scrapyard

      @@TheTrainMaster15 yes thats true. i read an intetview with Dai Woodham where he said he had no intention of helping steam preservation but wagaons were easier to cut, locos were in his yard longer and got noticed by preservation groups. 213 locomotives out of 297 that went in to woodhans yard are said to have left it for preservation. Thats not a small contribution to it. Bottom line, the purpose of being in buisness is to make money but it seemed woodhams desire to make money and preservation groups desire to preserve steam locos crossed . Woodham could have said no to the preservation groups but he didnt. He may have been a total twat to deal with, i don't know but at least he did his bit.

    Barry the Rescue Engine intro by WildnorWester.
    Dear viewers,
    In southern Wales, There's a place known as the barry scrap yard.
    When diesels took over on the other railway, 297 steam engines were sent there to be cut up for scrap.
    I'm pleased to say that 213 of these engines are preserved and are running on Heritage Railways all over the United Kingdom.
    I've recently learned that during the Spring and Summer of 1985 one of these engines were sent to the Northwest Railway. I'm sorry to say he wasn't in a good way when he arrived, But the Fat Controller and his engines soon saw to that!

      There was about 5 or 6 engines that didn’t survive Barry scrap yard. The only reason why the others did was because the scrap yard was inundated with wagon which are a lot easier to cut up. This is due to that steam boilers use a substance called asbestos which is a right pain to remove as it tends to cause a huge amount of dust filled with hook like strands that block airways and lungs and can cause lung cancer.

Dai Woodham played a major part in saving a large piece of the UK's Steam Heritage. Very few steam locomotives and I mean very few, were cut up at Barry.

    To everyone saying the engines should be happy because they're gonna BR saved, they didn't know that. They were certain that they were going to die there, and never run again. And a good few were scrapped there. To them, life ended there. It was just luck that got all those engines saved. And the others from other scrapyards, simply weren't. Think about it. The E2's, the A2's, the Warships, all reduced to metal.

    Clan line: what was the worst time in all your life
    GWR Engine:Barry Scrapyard
    Clan line: what's that, a book?
    GWR Engine:you never went to Barry Scrapyard!!!
    Clan line: Can someone please tell me what Barry Scrapyard is!
    GWR Engine: it was the place where where most steam engines went, how can you have not heard of it
    Clan line: i was brought straight from BR.

      Engine Owner: I see you two are talking about scrapyards.
      Clan Line & GWR Engine: Yes.
      Engine Owner: Well you're out of luck. Nobody likes steam engines anymore. They are not paying enough money to see them. So I'm sending you two to EMR Metals at Kingsbury to be ripped apart with cutting torches and recycled to make cat food tins, washing machines and razor blades. No more polluting for you.
      Clan Line: Boo hoo hoo
      GWR Engine: Boo hoo hoo
      *Closing shot later at EMR metals with Clan Line and GWR Engine getting chopped to pieces. Sparks flying everywhere and pieces clanging to the ground*

    This is genuinely depressing. The light rain, the singular faces and sorrow and pain on the engines, not even being being able to cry out. Just sitting there, knowing their death isn’t far away. If anything, I wish these engines all crashed and died, so they wouldn’t have to go through such torture. Sitting idle, knowing they can’t be used anymore. Useless. Unwanted. Unloved. Unneeded. Nobody. The old iron horses went through too much, and all for diesels that would eventually be scrapped anyways?

      I'm afraid that simply just isn't true. Whilst Barry scrap yard didn't cut up as many locomotives, other scrapyards such as cashmoores in Newport did so, and they had absolutely no hesitation in cutting up steam engines as soon as they arrived there. In fact Barry scrap yard never intended to save them for preservation, they kept them for a time when the scrap price was higher and they also had hundreds of old wagons to cut up in the mean time.
