==7714 in preservation==
7714 came to the SVR in 1973 following a successful bid by the [[Severn Valley Railway Association | SVRA ]] – Kidderminster Branch. A lengthy restoration followed; the locomotive was not first steamed until 1992.
7714 last saw service in August 2009. Following a period on display in [[The Engine House]], an overhaul is now under way at Bridgnorth. It is thought the damage to the right hand half of the cylinder casting occurred during its NCB ownership.
