These Locomotives aren't actually being decommissioned. Its the 141's and 181's that are, NO 071's are marked for scrapping.

these engines scared me as a kid.. what you mean by building brakes?

In all fairness they scared me too! And the odd time, still have that ability!
Anyway, by 'Building Brakes' it means bringing the power up (throttle) to create more air/vacuum. Simply you can make more pressure the faster the engine is going.
