A number of preserved railways have entered into agreements with commercial locomotive hire companies and operate some of their services with hired power. These locomotives cannot be classed as preserved as they may well be sold on or leased to a mainline operator with some possibly meeting the ultimate fate. Listed below are engines that are currently in use or are intended for use working passenger services on private lines. Locomotives owned by hire companies that are stored unserviceable at preservation sites will not be included.
