Description
Barry Scrapyard is a photographic record of British Rail's steam locomotives at their last stronghold in the 1960s and 1970s. Keith W. Platt's photographs capture the changing appearance of the locomotives as they were sold to preservation groups and underwent restoration. The images reveal the gradual development of the preservation movement, from the early days when locomotives were being sold to individuals and societies, to the later years when many had been restored to their former glory. The photographs also show the effects of time and weather on the locomotives, as well as the efforts made by preservation groups to preserve them. This book is a unique collection of photographs that provides a fascinating insight into Britain's railway heritage.
