| book description |

Growing up in north-west London in the 1950s and living alongside a busy freight line, the seed for a fascination with steam was firmly planted in the young Geoff Barker’s head. Later in life he was able to visit Barry Scrapyard and recorded the locos seen there over a seven-year period from 1977 to 1983. He then went back in the early 1990s to photograph every last remaining locomotive. Those holiday stop-offs at the famous scrapyard created a wonderful photographic record of a unique place. Through this selection of striking images and informative captions, Geoff Barker and David Holland celebrate this long-gone but much-cherished scrapyard.
