This is a list of past and present rolling stock used on the Fairbourne Railway, a 12+1⁄4 in (311 mm) narrow gauge preserved railway line running for 2 miles (3 km) from Fairbourne on the Mid-Wales coast to Barmouth Ferry on a spit of sand in the Mawddach Estuary opposite the town of Barmouth Welsh: Abermaw. The line was opened as a horse-drawn tramway in 1895 to carry building materials for Fairbourne village. Passenger carriages were introduced shortly afterwards to connect with the ferry to Barmouth. The line was converted to a 15 in (381 mm) steam railway in 1916 and became a successful tourist attraction. The line underwent another gauge conversion in 1985. The track was relayed at 12+1⁄4 in (311 mm) gauge and new rolling stock was introduced.
