The South Devon Railway is a heritage railway in Devon, England. The rolling stock preserved on the South Devon Railway includes many examples of steam locomotives typical of the Great Western Railway types that would have once worked on the line, other types of steam locomotives, and a number of diesel locomotives. The engine shed is at Buckfastleigh.

As well as locomotives in service, there are others undergoing overhaul or restoration, or which are displayed in non-working condition. The most significant one of these is Tiny a South Devon Railway 0-4-0vb shunting locomotive on display in the museum at Buckfastleigh station. This is the only original Template:RailGauge broad gauge locomotive still in existence in the United Kingdom.

There are a number of historic coaches in use including two "GWR Super Saloons", coaches once used in the Royal Train, and some auto coaches that were used on small branch lines such as this.

Steam locomotives:

Many of the steam locomotives operating on the South Devon railway are Great Western Railway (GWR) designs which would have worked on the line and nearby. There are also several locomotives from industrial facilities such as quarries and gas works, including some from locations in Devon.

Image	Number & name	Class	Wheels	Built	To SDR	Notes
Frameless	1369	GWR 1366	0-6-0PT	1934	1966	This class of six locomotives were designed for shunting around docks and on branch lines with tight curves. 1369 was built at Swindon in 1934. It worked at Swindon and on the Weymouth Quay branch until 1962 when it moved to Cornwall to work the Bodmin and Wenford branch until replaced by diesel locomotives in 1964. Its next overhaul is due in 2029.
	1420	GWR 1400	0-4-2T	1933	1965	The 1400 Class were fitted with controls for working autotrains which could be driven with the locomotive at the back of the train. They were a familiar sight on the Buckfastleigh line for many years before its closure. 1420 final location was Gloucester from where it was withdrawn on 2 February 1964. It came to Buckfastleigh on 17 October 1965. It has been out of service since 2006.
File:Staverton 3205 Diamond Jubilee.jpg	3205	GWR 2251	0-6-0	1946	1998	The 2251 Class were small locomotives introduced in 1930 for working lightly-laid routes in Wales although 3205 was used for a time on the former Somerset and Dorset route. It was withdrawn in 1965 and came to the Dart Valley Railway for preservation. From 1967 it spent time on the Severn Valley Railway and West Somerset Railway before returning to Buckfastleigh in 1998. It was taken out of service in 2017 and is still awaiting an overhaul in 2023.
	5526	GWR 4575	2-6-2T	1928	?	5526 was built in 1928 and worked from many sheds in Devon and Cornwall: St Blazey, Bodmin, Exeter, Plymouth Millbay, Plymouth Laira and Truro before being withdrawn from Westbury in 1962. It then went to Barry scrap yard from where it was purchased in 1985. It was moved to Swindon for restoration but this was not completed until it was sold to a new group and moved to Buckfastleigh. Its next major overhaul is expected to be in 2027.
	5542	GWR 4575	2-6-2T	1928	2019	5542 was built in 1928 and initially allocated to Gloucester but later worked at other depots including Newton Abbot. It was withdrawn from service in December 1961 and sold to the Woodham Brothers for scrap but was sold by them to preservationists in 1976 and moved to the West Somerset Railway for restoration and returned to steam in 2002.It was taken out of service in 2022 for an overhaul.
	L92 (5786)	GWR 5700	0-6-0PT	1930	1996	The 5700 Class were the most common of the Great Western Railway's 'pannier tanks' with 863 built between 1929 and 1949. After British Railways had no further use for 5786 it was sold to the London Transport Executive and, carrying the number L92, worked engineers trains on the Metropolitan line until 1971. It was then preserved by the Worcester Locomotive Society on the Severn Valley Railway and at Hereford before coming to the South Devon Railway. It was taken out of service in 2021 when it became due for an overhaul.
	6412	GWR 6400	0-6-0PT	1934	1966	The 6400 Class were 'pannier tanks' fitted with controls for working autotrains. Three were sold to the Dart Valley Railway and 6412 was eventually transferred to the Torbay Steam railway before being sold to the West Somerset Railway (WSR) in 1976. While on that line it starred in The Flockton Flyer television series. Trains on the WSR became too heavy for such a small locomotive so was sold to the South Devon Railway Trust and returned to Buckfastleigh in 2009. Its next overhaul is expected in 2025.
File:Buckfastleigh Musuem - Ashley (2011).JPG	Ashley	Peckett M5	0-4-0T	1942	1969	Peckett and Sons of Bristol built this (their works number 2031) in 1942 for use at Exeter Gas Works where it carried number 1. In 1969 it was withdrawn and moved to Buckfastleigh, arriving on 23 September. It is on display in the museum at Buckfastleigh.
	47 Carnarvon	Kitson	0-6-0ST	1934	1993	Kitson’s 5474 was built to a Manning Wardle design for Stewarts and Lloyds' steel works at Corby in 1934, numbered by them as 47 and named Carnarvon after that town in Wales. After it was no longer needed it was sold in 1969 to the Worcester Locomotive Society and used on the Severn Valley Railway before moving to the Bulmers Railway Centre in Hereford in 1970, even being used for shunting wagons for Bulmer's in 1973.
File:Buckfastleigh shed - Glendower.jpg	Glendower	Hunslet Austerity	0-6-0T	1954	1978	The 'Austerity' tanks were designed for the War Department in World War II but continued to be built afterwards. Glendower was built by Hunslet in 1954 (works number 3810) for the Ministry of Supply and went to work for the National Coal Board. After working at a number of collieries, it was withdrawn from Hafodyrynys in 1973. It was restored to working order in September 1976 and moved to Buckfastleigh in 1978.
Frameless	Lady Angela	Peckett R2	0-4-0ST	1926	1976	This small locomotive was built by Peckett and Sons in 1926 (works number 1690) and used to transport gypsum 2.7 miles (4.3 km) from a mine at New Kingston to sidings on the main line at Kegworth. Its name was that of the second Lady Belper on whose estate the mine was situated. The locomotive was sold in the 1971 after closure of the line and initially preserved on the Battlefield Line Railway. It came to Buckfastleigh in July 1976.
