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.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThrough this selection of striking images and informative captions, Geoff Barker and David Holland celebrate this long-gone but much-cherished scrapyard.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Griffin Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53608619868533,"sku":"9781398116603","price":15.99,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0379\/1365\/7388\/files\/9781398116603_74596d87-3e06-4d88-adc6-b074963cc92e.jpg?v=1759665818","url":"https:\/\/www.griffinbooksonline.co.uk\/products\/9781398116603","provider":"Griffin Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
