The Rolling stock of the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway was one of the most distinctive aspects of the 1 ft 11+1⁄2 in (597 mm) narrow gauge line which ran for almost twenty miles across Exmoor in North Devon, England, from 1898 to 1935. All of the original stock - sixteen passenger coaches and eighteen goods vehicles - were built to very high standards and supplied by the Bristol Wagon & Carriage Works. Replicas of locomotives Lew (Lyd) and Lyn were built in 2010 and 2017, respectively.

| - The Rolling stock of the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway was one of the most distinctive aspects of the 1 ft 11+1⁄2 in (597 mm) narrow gauge line which ran for almost twenty miles across Exmoor in North Devon, England, from 1898 to 1935. The locomotives appeared originally in a livery of plain lined green, and later on a black base, with chestnut under-frames, hauling passenger carriages coloured terracotta with off-white upper panels, and light grey goods wagons. The schemes were simplified as individual vehicles were repainted. With the take-over of the line by the Southern Railway in 1923, and the consequent arrival of a new locomotive - Lew - in 1925, the livery was slowly changed to the Southern Maunsell version for locos and passenger stock, and umber for the goods wagons. The loco headlamps which had been black under the L&B were re-painted red. All of the original stock - sixteen passenger coaches and eighteen goods vehicles - were built to very high standards and supplied by the Bristol Wagon & Carriage Works. Replicas of locomotives Lew (Lyd) and Lyn were built in 2010 and 2017, respectively. (en)
