THE END OF THE LINE - VALHALLA!

I have created this gallery to include those locomotives and otherwise that are actually in the process of being cut-up, dismantled or scrapped as opposed to being the victims of accidents, which of course they may have been originally, but mainly the disposal of redundant stock. Others may be of engines awaiting their fate in scrapyards. And, as an afterthought I have decided to include pictures of locomotives employed therein, many of which eventually fell under the cutter's torch in that same yard.
These pictures are published for pleasure/information/research purposes only and are not for sale or copy under any circumstances. Information in captions has been researched as thoroughly as possible but its accuracy cannot be guaranteed.
PLEASE NOTE : IMPORTANT MESSAGE : Please be aware that I do not sell copies of ANY of my pictures, DO NOT email copies to viewers or allow re-posting on other sites. Neither do I wish to enter into correspondence with any individual or group regarding my pictures or their captions. All comments reflect my personal opinions and I am not prepared to discuss these with anyone or to spend the rest of my life answering inane questions. I apologise for this disclaimer but I'm afraid it has been forced upon me. I have no wish to offend anyone and I hope you will continue to enjoy my pictures at your leisure.
