List of preserved British industrial steam locomotives

This is the list of preserved British industrial steam locomotives. This list does not contain preserved Fireless locomotives, for a list of preserved Fireless locomotives, visit List of fireless steam locomotives preserved in Britain. Notable locomotives that weren't initially intended for industrial railway service but worked on them (e.g. Furness Railway No. 20, later Barrow Steelworks) will also be included as their rebuilding/resale classified them as industrial-employed steam locomotives.

Use of these locomotives

Private companies like Manning, Wardle & Company were building locomotives as early as 1858 when E.B. Wilson and Company closed.^[1] Later located themselves at Boyne Engine Works (1840) in Jack Lane. Within the next few years, Hunslet Engine Company and Hudswell Clarke moved in besides Manning Wardle. One of Manning Wardle's oldest recorded locomotives was Sidlesham, an ex-industrial 0-6-0ST later used on West Sussex Railway. There were also companies as old or older, Kitson & Company, formerly Todd, Kitson and Laird, formed in 1838.

Preserved locomotives

Over one hundred industrial tank engines have survived into preservation, from over ten different manufacturers, ranging from small to big numbers. Most of these locomotives were bought for preservation from industrial service or private use.

Andrew Barclay Sons & Co.^[2]

Over forty Andrew Barclay tank engines survived into preservation. The oldest survivor being No. 699 Swanscombe built in 1891. These lists might not contain every single locomotive preserved. Many 0-4-0 saddle tanks of small size have been preserved.^[3] Many preserved AB&SC locomotives have been preserved in several numbers at the Ribble Steam Railway, Tanfield Railway, Scottish Industrial Railway Centre and Bo’ness and Kinneil Railway. Only notable locomotives with a sizeable amount of information and/or a known recent/current status will be included. Many of these locomotives have been named after where they worked.

No. 299 Hodbarrow No. 5	0-4-0ST		Statfold Barn Railway	Built in 1884 for Hodbarrow Mine, Millom as No. 5, working until the early-mid 1960s. It is the eldest complete example of a standard gauge Hunslet-built industrial locomotive. Currently on static display.[74]
No. 469 Hastings	0-6-0ST		Kent & East Sussex Railway	Built in 1888 for Manchester Ship Canal contractors, originally named Liverpool. Upon it being sold to Price, Wills & Reeves, the locomotive was renamed Hastings. It worked at Rotherham in 1915 then to Sproxton Quarry in 1935. Purchased for preservation on the Kent & East Sussex Railway in 1964 and returned to steam the following year. The locomotive jumped from the Mangapps Railway Museum to the Elsecar Heritage Railway, then finally steamed in May 2021 at the Statfold Barn Railway, 4 months later to the Chasewater Railway before returning to the Kent & East Sussex Railway in May 2022. The locomotive subsequently failed on trials and undertook repairs and was operational for the Bluebell Railway's Branch Line Gala in April 2023.[75]
No. 686 The Lady Armaghdale	0-6-0ST		Severn Valley Railway	Built in 1898 for the Manchester Ship Canal as St John. During WWI, its name was removed and simply numbered 14.

Withdrawn in 1968, The Lady Armaghdale was preserved in 1969 and moved to the Severn Valley Railway. The locomotive had been disguised as Thomas the Tank Engine for relevant events in the 2000s before withdrawal in 2009, now on static display.[76]

During the locomotive's restoration, it moved to Llangollen where restoration was completed in 2003. The locomotive was converted to a side tank during its next overhaul so it could run as Thomas the Tank Engine for events; these changes were reverted in 2019 by which point the locomotive was added to the fleet of the Pontypool and Blaenavon Railway.[77][78]
No. 3782 Arthur	0-6-0ST		Buckinghamshire Railway Centre	Built in 1953 for the National Coal Board to a 1923 design.

It was stored at the site awaiting an overhaul, until one was reported to have been making progress in December 2022.[79]

Kitson & Company^[80]

Out of all industrial Kitson & Co designs, one of their locomotive constructions were their long-boiler pannier tank locomotives built in the 1880s, originally a Stephenson design, with some working at Barrow Steel and two long boiler locomotives are believed to have worked at Dowlais Ironworks in Wales as No. 34 'Lord Wimbourne',^[81][82] one of which, No. 5 of 1883, survives today. Many other industrial Kitson locomotives survive, another well-known one being Lambton Railway 0-6-2T No. 29 of 1904.
