Vehicles
The BRCW Group currently has twelve vehicles located at our base on the Churnet Valley Railway. Six are Class 104 DMU vehicles of which two are available for passenger service. The other six are Mk1 support coaches, one of which is available for use on the railway. The sections below are split into relevent sections and there is also a section showing the DMUs that have visited the CVR for gala events. Click on the image to go to the page for that vehicle.
Class 104 Vehicles
M50455 DMBS
M50517 DMCL
M50455 & M50517 form our operating set and are used for all DMU services on the CVR.
M59137 TCL
The current restoration project which when completed will join M50455 & M50517 in the operating set.
M56182 DTCL
53437 DMBS
M53494 DMCL
The good condition of this stored vehicle makes it a likely restoration project once M59137 is complete.
53437 & M53494 are a second 104 set which we have longer term aims of returning to service once other projects are completed.
