The grounded body of this GWR wooden framed Covered Goods Van can be seen at Kidderminster, having been acquired from the West Somerset Railway.<ref> Railway Heritage Register Wagon Survey</ref>. It was built circa 1884 at Swindon.
Since arrival at the SVR, the van body has been cosmetically restored with the assistance of the [[Friends of Kidderminster Town Station]]. The Friends [http://www.kfriends.org.uk/projects/vanbody.htm project page] notes that although grounded van bodies were normally painted black, 37150 has been painted in GWR brown with the agreement of the owners in order to highlight its original identity.
