Exeter was repainted in un-prototypical two tone green and rededicated by the Crew of HMS Exeter at Kidderminster in 2007. '44 has subsequently been repainted in BR Blue.
In 2012 a problem with oil temperature on a mainline railtour damaged 50044's diesel set. A replacement English Electric 16CSVT has been secured from Portugal (ex CP 1807) which is now fitted inside '44 and the final touches to bring it in line with UK specifications are being worked on. Start up is anticipated in late 2016early 2017.<ref>[http://www.fiftyfund.org.uk/index.php/our-locomotives/50044-exeter Fifty Fund 50044 page]</ref> ==See also==[[Diesel Locomotives]]<br>[[List of preservation groups]] ==References==<references />
