- Keep, this is notable since it is a railway open to the public, but more sources would be preferable. Snowsuit Wearer ( talk| contribs) 13:41, 13 September 2015 (UTC)
- Weak delete. This amounts to split content from Isle of Wight Steam Railway, so I'm not sure we should worry about notability. Rolling stock lists are pretty common, though I'm not a fan. The items on the list aren't notable, and these lists in general tend to acquire unverifiable railfan cruft. I don't know that any policies govern this use case. These lists by their nature are self-referenced and best handled with an external link back to the railway's website instead of a list which reproduces that site's content.

- Keep - Similar lists exist for other major UK heritage railways. They are split off from the HR article for size reasons. Mjroots ( talk) 19:07, 19 September 2015 (UTC)
- Keep - It seems like a merge would make the target article, from which this was extracted from, too long. -- Oakshade ( talk) 05:24, 20 September 2015 (UTC)
- Keep as a historical article, Sourcing needs improvement but notability's there .– Davey2010 Talk 19:37, 22 September 2015 (UTC)
