Heritage Shunters Trust

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

This is an old revision of this page, as edited by 164.39.72.218 (talk) at 15:00, 2 September 2016 (Diesel locomotives). The present address (URL) is a permanent link to this revision, which may differ significantly from the current revision.

Heritage Shunters Trust is a trading name of The South Yorkshire Railway Co. Ltd. which was founded in 1989. HST is a railway preservation society and is the only preservation society that solely specialises in the preservation of diesel shunters in the UK. The initials HST can be seen as a pun on High Speed Train (shunters being very low-speed machines).

Most of the locomotives are kept at Rowsley, Derbyshire on the site of preserved railway Peak Rail but the company is certainly a separate outfit.
