  Heritage railway - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Typically a heritage railway will use steam locomotives and old-fashioned rolling stock to create a "period atmosphere", although some are now concentrating on more recent "modern image" diesel and electric traction to re-create the post-steam railway era.
The first heritage railway to be rescued and run entirely by volunteers was the Talyllyn Railway in Wales.
The Wensleydale Railway is an example of a commercial line run partly as a heritage operation and partly to provide local transportation.

 Review: LNER Locomotives: Locomotive Performance
In BR Steam days, my Eastern runs were few and far between.
Then from 1979 onwards there was main line steam, though so far as LNER locomotives were concerned, it usually meant two A4's (4498 and 60009) an A3 (4472) and a K1 2-6-0 (2005).
But it was a different matter on several of the Heritage lines, where there was an increasing variety of ex LNER medium, small sized, and freight locomotives, which had to work hard on such lines as the North Yorkshire Moors, the East Lancashire, and Great Central lines.
