The locomotives of the Culdee Fell Railway are all [[0-4-2]] [[tank locomotives]] with angled [[boilers]], stovepipe [[chimneys]] and back-to-front [[cylinder]]s. They have [[Gears|pinion wheels]] on their driving [[axles]] that allow them to climb the steep mountain and prevent slipping. They are also fitted with automatic [[brakes]].
Lord Harry, Alaric and Eric are newer, more modern engines. They are fitted with [[superheating]] to improve their steaming efficiency. Norman, Betty, Phyllis and George are the diesel engines, and Betty and Phyllis are first female engines.
All the locomotives carry a purple livery, lined out in orange.
====Shane Dooiney====
''Shane Dooiney'' (number 5) is (was) the only Mountain Engine never to appear in the stories. He was still being overhauled in [[Switzerland]] during the events of the book ''Mountain Engines''. His name was not even revealed until the publication of the book ''The Island of Sodor: Its People, History and Railways''. Like Culdee, he is named after a mountain on Sodor. Since his return, all repairs to the engines have been carried out at [[Fictional locations in The Railway Series#Crovan's Gate|Crovan's Gate Works]]. His equivalent on the [[Snowdon Mountain Railway]] is ''Moel Siabod''.
====Lord Harry/Patrick====
====Eric====
''Eric'' (number 8) replaced Wilfred on the railway and has only a minor part in the series. He is built to a 'super-heat' design. His [[Snowdon Mountain Railway]] equivalent is ''Eryri''.
====Norman====
''Norman'' (number 9) is the first diesel locomotive on Culdee Fell Railway. He is based on ''Ninian'' on [[Snowdon Mountain Railway]].
====Betty====
''Betty'' (number 10) is the second diesel locomotive and first female locomotive on Culdee Fell Railway. She is based on ''Yeti'' on [[Snowdon Mountain Railway]].
====Phyllis====
''Phyllis'' (number 11) is the third diesel locomotive and second female locomotive on Culdee Fell Railway. She is based on ''Peris'' on [[Snowdon Mountain Railway]].
====George====
''George'' (number 12) is the fourth diesel locomotive on Culdee Fell Railway. He is based on ''George'' on [[Snowdon Mountain Railway]], hence the same name.
