Barry Island Glamorgan South Wales 13th October 1968
Cheek to cheek Bulleid Pacifics.
SR unrebuilt Battle of Britain 34073 249 Squadron (left) & rebuilt Merchant Navy 35029 Ellerman Lines (right) plus another unrebuilt Bulleid crowd together at Woodham's scrapyard in Barry
Both were Southern Railway designs but built by British Railways, 34073 in 1948 and 35029 in 1949 and withdrawn in 1965 and 1967 respectively. 35029 is now in the National Railway Museum at York sectioned to show the internal workings of a steam locomotive so this side view is no longer available. 34073, still unrestored, languishes at the East Lancs Railway.
