This is a list of past and present rolling stock used on the Talyllyn Railway (Welsh: Rheilffordd Talyllyn), a 2 ft 3 in (686 mm) narrow gauge preserved railway line running for 7.25 miles (11.67 km)[1] from Tywyn on the Mid-Wales coast to Nant Gwernol near the village of Abergynolwyn.

Stanhope and Diana ran on temporary 2 ft (610 mm) track laid at Wharf station, and No.
Some of these survived into the preservation era, and since then a large number of additional wagons have been purchased and built.
