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 Barkers 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.

Recenzijas

'I don't often enjoy the sight of derelict locomotives, but this is the best Barry album I've yet seen.' -- Model Rail Magazine, March 2025 'After a painstaking process of selecting around 200 of the most striking images, restoring the prints and writing informative captions, the book was published in January 2025 by Amberley Books and has won praise from heritage transport experts.' -- Swanage News, March 2025 'It's amazing what money, time and elbow grease can achieve, so this curious literary offering might just appeal.' -- Steam Railway Magazine, July 2025
