    Apart from Cashmore's at Newport and Woodham's at Barry, were there any other scrap yards in South Wales where steam locos were cut up please?
    At school several people reckoned there was one at Swansea and another at Bridgend, but we never went as no one seemed to know for definite, let alone where abouts in town they were.

    The excellent Steam for Scrap series or compilation volume by Nigel Trevena is the standard work. Fascinating stuff.
