In the early 1970s I had to join a research ship at the Research Vessel Base at Barry Dock. Each time my heart wept when I saw these wonder Steam Locos rusting away. This video brought it all back. Thank you.
Never say "Never"... To the average person, nothing but "junk". To a visionary, an "opportunity"! Amazing, the level of skill and devotion required to bring these back to life!
Barry's scrap yard is famous in the UK preservation scene. If you've been to a UK preservation railway, there is VERY high chance the engine pulling you spent time there. The fact Barry just let the engines sit in his yard was a stroke of unimaginable good fortune for preservation railways. As every other scrap contractor cut them up as soon as they rolled in the yard. But not Barry. So when preservation started to get going. Barry was the only person who had anything left in any meaningful quantity to be preserved.
Without Barrys scrap yard, the preservation scene would be a shadow of what it is today.
Have to agree, I'm starting to think that Barry disguised the yard as a scrapyard, even though it was a secret preservation yard, and some of us know that many or some of the trains were sent to undisclosed or private locations.
Hopefully British Railways or, as it's known today as "British Rail" will not find out.
Barry Island scrapyard has been empty for at least 20 years. Dai Woodham made the decision to keep the steam locomotives because he was making so much money from scrapping coal trucks. He inadvertently saved nearly a thousand steam engines and just about every single locomotive is in preservation, either restored to full working order, or awaiting restoration.
Wrong and wrong. 213 made it out of Barry. Not 1000s. Dai also cut up about 84 steam locos, mostly GWR types.
Why did you put the obvious clip in with the model steam loco looking rusty as if nobody would notice the over rust colour on it
Albert Draper, who burned through over 700 locos, is without question the most infamous scrapdealer in history....
I went there in around 1968, climbed on the engines. Didnt realise the significance of them at the time. I was 8 years old.
I got inspired by this and made my own scrap train out of a Hornby truck!!!! You deserve lots of credit!!!!
48305 has since been restored and is now at home at great central railway and recently featired in the winter steam gala
The Brits are the best at this. I wish there was the same interest here in the states..
Barry Carlisle America had the idea of "if it works now, it'll be good in the future" when it came to railwaiy
Railways
Barry Carlisle you made no sense!?
Look to Union Pacific, and X4014 Big Boy. Not all go to the scrap heap or museums, even in the USA.
@@MrMoggyman Steam locomotives continue to be *ripped apart with cutting torches and melted down as scrap* I am campaigning and lobbying with Union Pacific to cut and scrap 4014.
Wow I remember going with my dad as a teenager in his artic lorry as a teenager in the early to mid 90’s to collect the scrap cuttings from the yards and transport them to Newport for smelting. Loved being left behind for the odd load and playing driver in some of these
@It’s Alfie! It's great that the old scrap was taken away and recycled in Newport. Steam loco scrap cuttings make great charge for the induction furnaces.
That is an incredible amount of rusted scrap awaiting the cutters torch.
0:13 duck
I thank the private scrapyards Especially Barry that saved these locos for future generations
Believe me or not the owner of Barry scrapyard Dai woodham is a steam locomotive driver in 1923
They're locomotives. They haul trains.
Yeah, they're not 'train cars'.
They are not "trains".
This makes me unreasonably sad
Why? Barry's scrap yard was a god send for preservation. The vast majority of engines you see there are running today because they had the good fortune to be sent to barry. There are stories of engine crews deliberately manipulating their orders to make it so their engine went to Barry and not one of the many other scrappers, all of whome appart from Barry cut the engines down to melt as soon as they arrived.
@@abrr2000 It was more about the fact that things got that bad. Its just the way of the world. Its a miracle that so many nade it there and made it out though. I know that, and did when this comment was made 3 years ago
Many of these are now wonderfully restored like No. 71000 Duke of Gloucester.
But many loco's are still in the condition how they came from Barry, one of them is just recently started on at the railway I volunteer at, dismantling a loco that stood in the open for more than 50 years since withdrawal is no mean feat.
Some of the loco's from Barry are parted and used in recreation projects to create newbuilds of classes with no original survivors, like the GWR Grange, 48xx Night Owl and hawksworth County, this was posiible thanks to widespread standardisation at the GWR after Churchward got CME.
Biggest mistake however was the scrapping of D601, a NBL diesel shown in the video, it was marked for preservation but in 1980 it was considered too far gone to restore and broken up, none of the NBL mainline diesel survive, and there are now plans to rebuild on of the smaller D6300 class which has 4 axles and one engine compared to the 6 axles and 2 engines of D601, and original engine has been sourced, there are 2 of these engines known to have survived in the UK.
So many young engines were sent to be cut up. Lots of the BR Standards were less than 20 years old before succumbing to the cutters torch. It's really sad to think about.
Lawrence White std 4 tank 80150 was only 9 years old
100s of them never made 10 years
They were designed to stay in service until 1999
92219 9F was only 5 years old when withdrawn ,scandalous
What a sad scene seeing all those beautiful steam loco rusting and dying,although not diesel fan its sad to see the early ones too, thank god they are being brought back to life, if I won the lottery I'd buy them up.RIP
One man's junk is another man's treasure.
Here's a list of all the steam locos that were sliced apart for scrap at Barry and sent for melting. There were lots of GWR engines which had copper fireboxes, so plenty of profit for Dai Woodham to chop these for scrap and sell the metals at a good profit.

the majority of the steam locomotives that went into Woodham brothers scrapyard Barry Island Wales came back out , were preserved and are running on heritage railways, although some maybe be withdrawn for overhaul . it's

3:31 i’m proud big world big adventures is over
James: Disgraceful!
Henry: Despicable!
Gordon: Disgusting...
Such a sad sight. I remember them cho-chos steaming across our farm as a kid. Sad they're no longer around.
amazing
One of the first engines shown and shown twice, 80100 still in her ex Barry state with an unknown future. (As far as I know.)
Just wondering, did the E2’s end up here too?
Probably scrapped at either Brighton or Eastleigh works
I like this song
RIP Steam Locos of Britain
May you chuffs and whistle ring out in heaven
You realize that these engines are virtually all now in preservation. It' the engines that DIDN'T get sent to Barry you should be sad about. cos they got cut up and melted down.
At 0.25 the footage is nothing to do with Barry, or steam locos. It's a shot of Swindon Works scrap yard in 1975 or '76.
If i were a billionare, i would buy all those steam trains and restore them
Shin Gojira 2017 all those steam trains have been preserved, most of them were on the barry scrap yard. None were scrapt there, but elswhere yes, but the entire feet of them were preserved.
james bradford Yes many steam locomotives were also scrapped at Woodhams Barry. About 80 in fact. You should learn history better if you are going to comment.
@@PreservationEnthusiast Nowhere near 80
@@christopherspencer5323 See link. There are other references too.
Although I am a scrapping enthusiast, I know far more about steam than most railfans. I win again! www.greatwestern.org.uk/barrycut.htm
@@PreservationEnthusiast A lot of spare parts for the preserved ones
No steam locomotives were scrapped, if it wasn’t for that place we’d have no steam railways in the uk
They were not all rusted out when I went, like in the video . They were all in good condition.
Thank you.
1:13
Me: SAVE THE DUCKING IVATT!!!!
1:32 many of the models in Dai's yard?
I think you mean engines (not trains). The only model in this video is on 3:15
I think the "King" at 3.16 is a model.
Same
..............sad Movie ,......good Music !
love this track.....who is it?
R.I.P Thomas and friends😭👌
Can we restored?
They are locomotives not trains
Same thing
@@dimitrispaliogiannis7953no, not at all
I wish that dai woodham would have saved tank engines like the LB&SCR E2,the LB&SCR D3,the caledonian class 264 and 611 classes,the barry railway class B1,and the BR standard class 2 2-6-2T.
Locomotives.... NOT trains!!!
Bagus tapi kereta tua uda lama sudah rusak
At the start there are pannier tanks!!!!!
Sandwiched between two Bullied pacifics
Donald and Douglas fan 10 And BR Standard Tanks After The Pannier Tank Scene
Duck you mean.
love it thank
Agree with two correspondents that music in railway videos is totally unnecessary and is intrusive, as here. I am saddened by any coverage of scrap yards and locos that I used to admire being left to rust away. Well done preservation groups and working lines, I can still see some of my old favourites.
Keith Thomas The preservation societies are doing us all a diservice. These polluting locos should be cut with gas torches into small pieces and the metals recycled as scrap to make cleaner traction.
@@PreservationEnthusiast Plenty can be done to make the cleaner. The T1 trust which is an organization that is building a brand new T1 duplex(the class is extinct with non saved) is going to use their locomotive to experiment with cleaner fuels.
At 3:35 standard 4 no 75079 maybe
Duck at 0:10!
Diesel 10: beautiful
Nice to see the class52s at the start....................at Swindon! not Barry
cool aban train
Yeah and the title says??
so sad
the old days :(
I allready bin there i got a steam wistle from G23 steam locomotive
This is kinda sad 😔
I wonder if any of the old steam engines my dad used to drive were in there?
cmdfarsight Cool!
If I had a Railway with 500,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 dollars, I'D SAVE THEM AAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLL I TELL YA
CXR 2000 You Mean GBPs?
it does make you wonder why
Hi Arthur good morning my friend
The coronation Scot did sadly perish possibly the greatest lms train
This old trains still exist but its very rare
It is a shame everybody wants to save all the engines but it is a harsh reality we can't save them allfixed or copy should be reused to fix the or even to rebuild the living and breathing engines that we know and love today we need to rescue at least 4 or 5 of each kind of engine that way the heritage can live on
GREAT VIDEO BUT THE KING IS A SCALE MODEL
Such ashame
It is no good trying to explain to our nameless scrapper the excitement one feels watching a steam locomotive in full throttle. The involvement and romance one has felt over the many years of following these magnificent ‘beings’ up and down the country and on every main and branch line. A mixture of locos ranging from the shunting tank to the grand express version such as the present Flying Scotsman and Tornado. I have been transfixed by these dirty, smelly and noisy things for decades. I would assume that our scrapper is of a younger generation. I am sorry that my fascination has passed you by. Train travel must be rather tedious for you.
As a lad I used to go train spotting on Saturdays to Doncaster station. I remember the thrill when the Flying Scotsman was thundering up the line in clouds of smoke and steam and warning bells rang like fury as the porters made sure that we were all behind the yellow line on the platform. Then the monster thundered through the station like a dragon smelling of oil and smoke with the Pullman coaches just a flashing blur. It was such an exhilarating feeling.
You clearly don't know the story of the Barry yard. Dai Woodham was no nameless scrapper and long before he died he knew that without his efforts there would have been no heritage railway industry. He held on to the engines while enthusiasts raised the money to purchase them, a process that often took years. He never admitted to being an enthusiast himself, but he knew where it was all going and his sons have said that he was immensely proud of what he had achieved.
That photo in 1:43 is now viral GG
save the royal scott is the beautiful art of the english people in railway
Is actually seem dark you looks like an engines graveyard all those days I wish people are fire engines naughty or day will be fine they won't be waiting to be cut-out for scrap
So sad :(

THE AGE OF STEAM SHALL NEVER DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
The Age Of Steam died a very long time ago now, steam however is heritage will never die in that sence. Today unfortunately it is the age of Privatisation and Profits. :(
NEVER DIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Music totally unnecessary!
Acrobatic Cripple Aye indeed, someone of better taste would’ve chosen something unraucous and more appropriate. For instance to-morrow is All Saints’ Day, imagine families going to the cemetery to be “greeted” with deafening music like this. Some people have no taste and no sense.
Turn the sound down and stop moaning.
Good Music!
You Don't Seriously call it Music do you? It is just noise
@@BobFarnell All Music, is noise! Otherwise, you wouldn't hear it. Maybe, it's not to your taste.
1:36 Thomas the tank engine coming off that lsd high
Hi
So sad to see locomotives get scrapped
Jacob Garza I really enjoy seeing locos being scrapped. I like to see videos of the sparks flying and pieces falling off the loco as it is sliced apart for scrap ready for melting down.
@@PreservationEnthusiast you again Capt Dildoface/heel1234. Christ, you get around. I detect a certain psycopathic tendency.
Look closely...
Dont let me die at 1:06
Why was a model loco shown at 3.22
if 2509 silver link was in that scrapyard, im willing to form an organization, or attempt to form it so we can buy it.
Nope it was scrapped. This is of barry scrapyard in the 70's and none of it is there now
@@mattlander9119 ik i just said if it was I would try but ofc british rail would scrap it
sir topham hatt should save them
They're not there any more, and haven;t been for decades. They're all preserved.
Spare 83 of them. :(
Where is the video taken because I can renew them on my own but I'll let you help me if you can help me out with renewing them I'll be very very grateful for your help OK.
👎 deseil scrap them bring back steam thomas😢😢😢😢😢😢
spoiled by awful music!
It is a great pity that the music has not ended up in the scarp yard.
So sad 😭😭 steam will be still used
3:18 why does that look like a model train?
it is one
DMHD ive seen you every where on these train videos in the comments
anyway it is a model train
Available to buy on eBay
Merlin and Murdoch Fan 783 It Is A Model Train
there not trains there locomotives
thats what you call it in the us. not the uk
In the UK, would they use the word there or they're?
@@rotunda57 I'm in the UK, and I'd say they're.
They're and they're...sorry to be a grammar nasty but it's really easy to get it right...
Nothing's left of that scrapyard now
Correct. It is now a supermarket. The remaining locos known as the Barry 10 were removed some were scrapped for spare parts. Others live on unrestored. We are lobbying and campaigning to send these for scrap.
@Goldfish Thx
@@PreservationEnthusiast What a fucktarded statement.
What's the song?
If I was billionaires i would buy all the steam locomotive engines and restore them back to steam and save all of them from barry scrap yard because it is so sad to them rusting away plus I would like to buy a steam locomotive from barry scrap yard to restore it
Read the subtitles that accompany the video
3:24 thats a model
God no send trains of scarpyard send of museum
Nooooooooooooo
NOOO!!!!! my friends are dead I’m a train to
Same...
I wish this was illegal
Would be nice to get it up and going again
0:37 no Arthur!
1:00 NOO! Murdoch I think!
1:19 NOOO belle!
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/BR_Standard_Class_8
NO!!!!!!! NOT ARTHUR AND MURDOCK!!!!!!!! THOSE STEAM HATING SAVAGES!!!!!!!!!!!
Murdock is a 9f that’s a merchant navy or br std 7
They all look like ugly, rusty, wrecks........ah, but look again.......inside that rusty wreck is a live steam engine just waiting to have some tender loving care to come back to life almost as good as new. The worst days work BR ever did was removing steam so quickly, and they paid the price.....the 1970's OPEC oil crisis saw to that. Demanning, throwing staff on the scrap heap, and ripping up the network in favour of the car was their idea. And now? Seems the tide is turning again. Idiots....the UK sat on top of 300 years reserve of coal, and the British public in love with steam locomotives, and they scap the lot in one fail swoop. Today it is my and many others belief that steam should return to the mainline in the UK. Steam locomotives have earned that right.
Steam engines forever!!!!
this is sad they should bring steam trains back
They already are.
This will be good
Locos
I would help if I could
I think theis should be illegal 《:{
