The Trust is was located at [[Hampton Loade | Hampton Loade station]], where they have had a workshop base and [[The Barry Railway Carriage Trust Sales Van | sales van]] and workshop base.
Until 2018 it was a membership body by subscription. It then became a supporters' organisation with no membership, due to the membership secretary departing for other projects and no replacement being forthcoming.<ref>Trust Facebook post 14 August 2019 (Retrieved 23 April 2020)</ref> It publishes an annual newsletter 'The Barry Octopus'.
