The UK National Collection is a collection of around 280 historic rail vehicles (predominantly of British origin). The majority of the collection is kept at four national museums:
- National Railway Museum, York
- Locomotion, Shildon
- Science Museum, Kensington, London
- Science and Industry Museum, Manchester
Other items are on short or long-term loans to museums and heritage railways such as the Museum of the Great Western Railway at Swindon and the Head of Steam museum at Darlington.
