🚂 Locomotives You Might See in Steam 🚂
The Bluebell Railway operates a richly varied fleet, and the engines in steam change regularly. That means every visit comes with its own surprise, from graceful Victorian survivors to powerful post-war classics.
Depending on the day, you could be hauled by:
- BR Standard 5MT No. 73082 Camelot - A strong and smooth-running British Railways mainline-style locomotive.
- BR (GWR Design) No. 6989 Wightwick Hall - A handsome Modified Hall class engine with a proud Great Western heritage.
- LBSCR H2 Atlantic No. 32424 Beachy Head - A majestic express locomotive recreated with extraordinary care.
- SR Battle of Britain Class No. 34059 Sir Archibald Sinclair - A sleek Southern Railway Pacific with unmistakable character.
- LBSCR Terrier No. 72 Fenchurch - A delightful Victorian engine, small in size but brimming with charm.
- BR Standard 4MT Tank No. 80151 - A versatile and reliable tank engine ideal for heritage line services.
- SECR O1 No. 65 - A rugged classic that brings real working-railway character to the line.
Heritage diesel and electro-diesel locomotives, such as Class 73, which may also appear on certain services or duties.
Because the fleet rotates, it is always worth checking what is scheduled before you travel.
