List of rolling stock preserved on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway

The rolling stock preserved on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway is used to operate trains on the North Yorkshire Moors Railway (NYMR), a heritage railway in North Yorkshire, England. There is a variety of preserved steam and diesel locomotives and diesel multiple units, passenger coaches and goods wagons. Some are owned by the railway itself but most are owned by various individuals or voluntary groups. The line is also regularly visited by locomotives based elsewhere. Some come for a day on a railtour, others for a few days or weeks to take part in a special gala, but a few stay for many months and form part of the stock working scheduled trains.

Notes
  1. The locomotive can haul trains on Network Rail, only on the 6 miles (9.7 km) of the Esk Valley line from Grosmont to Whitby. Or on the 19 miles (31 km) route from Whitby to Battersby via Grosmont during special events.
  2. Some mainline certified/non mainline certified locomotives are not permitted to run on the line to Whitby due to various technical reasons, which may include: high axle weight exceeding the bridges maximum load on this route; the route's curves are too tight and may damage the locomotives driving wheels, etc.
  3. Certified for full mainline use on the National Network besides the Whitby to Battersby sections.
  4. Loco not permitted to operate over the mainline due to flange less centre driving wheels and route curves being too tight which could cause a derailment.

Its previous boiler ticket expired on 1 January 2018.

Following sale from the NYMR to Peter Best in Feb 2020 the engine is now undergoing an overhaul for mainline operation between Grosmont, Whitby and Battersby.

NER 1111 Six-wheel luggage composite Under restoration Built in 1890 at York. It was withdrawn in 1924 and converted to a tool van and lost its centre wheelset. Preserved from Bishop Auckland in 1973 by the NER Coach Group. The coach was kept at Levisham while a slow restoration progressed. It was later donated to the LNER Coach Association. In February, 2019, 1111 was moved to the Stainmore Railway, at Kirkby Stephen East, on a 30-year loan for restoration to commence and when restored, will run there in service for the remainder of the loan. During the restoration, the coach will return to a six-wheeler.[1][2]
