SR departmental locomotives are the locomotives of departmental (non-revenue earning) stock originally introduced by the Southern Railway. Both departmental locomotives and carriages were numbered in a series commencing at 1S. The series was retained by the Southern Region of British Rail, but amended so that the numbers carried a 'DS' prefix instead of an 'S' suffix.
This page lists the locomotives numbered in this series, including steam, diesel and electric locomotives.
