98480 was subsequently stored at [[Kidderminster]], deemed to be in unusable condition. During 1986 it was moved to [[Bewdley]] for overhaul. This included welding repairs to cracks in the framework and the replacement of curb rails which the PBA had removed to gain access to the floor planks without stripping the sides down. The brake gear also received attention and the wagon entered service after being repainted.<ref name=SVR82/>
