It is now based at the Ribble Steam Railway at Preston, Lancashire following its relocation from the Lakeside and Haverthwaite Railway. New accommodation which is shared with the Ribble Steam Railway has been built and is used to house, restore and maintain the Trust's locomotives and other vehicles. The Trust often hires its locomotives and stock to other privately owned railways in the UK where they can be seen working. The Trust owns: - Furness Railway Nº20, Britain's oldest working standard gauge steam locomotive. At Ribble Steam Railway, awaiting overhaul which is to commence in 2019.
- Furness Railway Nº25, ownership passed to FRT in 2015 after death of Bert Hitchen, it will be restored to operating order as an 0-4-0ST, the way it was rebuilt for Barrow Steelworks when sold by FR, recently moved to Ribble Steam Railway from Steamtown Carnforth.
