==43106 in preservation==
43106 was one of the SVR’s early locomotives, arriving ‘light engine’ direct from Lostock Hall in August 1968. It worked services on the official opening day in May 1970, and in [[Severn Valley Railway Timeline 1970-1979#1975 | 1975]] took part in the Rail 150 celebrations at Shildon, travelling there in steam behind [[LMS Stanier 8F 48773 | 48233]]. 43106 also hauled several [[The Severn Valley Railway on the main line | main line railtours]] during the 1980s.
Her recent overhaul was completed in 2009. A more recent intermediate overhaul saw work carried out on the boiler which allowed a new 10 year certificate to be issued along with a completely new loco dragbox.
