LBSCR A1X Class 0-6-0T 55 Stepney
The definitive Bluebell engine, Stepney often appears on short passenger runs or double heading with the 'big engines'!

SR 'West Country' Class 4-6-2 21C123 Blackmoor Vale
Arguably one of the flagship engines in the Bluebell fleet, in model form Blackmoor Vale seems to be a lot more reliable than in reality!

BR Standard 4MT 4-6-0 75027
75027 was by far the biggest engine on the Bluebell when purchased out of BR service at the end of steam in 1968. However it has been a reliable workhorse on the Bluebell for many years.
This model is unlikely to see regular use at Fletching for some time because although it runs well, it has a split frame chassis and will be very difficult to convert to DCC.

BR Standard 5MT 4-6-0 73082 Camelot
Possibly my favourite Bluebell engine, the Camelot Locomotive Society's 'Standard Arthur' has always managed to prove itself as a reliable and versatile engine.
