Duffryn Yard This page collects together information on Duffryn Yard, its engine sheds and goods yard, up to its closure in 1964. Duffryn Yard was situated.... Other than its location, its significance was as the home of a large proportion of the locomotives used on the GWR's wider network of valleys lines, substantially devoted to freight traffic though also providing traction for some passenger services. The maps below shows the opening and closure dates of Duffryn Junction, associated lines and the yard and sheds. Final closure came in 1964, when Duffryn's much reduced role was substantially relpaced by the new Margam diesel depot, located to the east of Port Talbot Steel Works.
