A flash appeal by the [[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd| SVR Charitable Trust]] raised more than £13,000 to help pay for the repairs, which involved stripping and repainting both coaches over a 6-week period.<ref>[https://www.shropshirestar.com/news/local-hubs/bridgnorth/2017/12/26/historic-severn-valley-railway-carriages-vandalised-by-yobs/ Shropshire Star]</ref><ref>SVR News 201</ref><ref>SVR Charitable Trust accounts to 30 June 2018, p.5</ref> In September 2023 a paintwork/varnish refresh was completed at [[Bridgnorth Loco Works|Bridgnorth Loco Works paintshop]], one of several carriages that received attention there.
