fix typo and use new as of format
In 1989 the WILPG sent the boiler from 2047 Warwickshire to Pridhams for overhaul. It soon transpired that the thickness of the boiler plate was below the acceptable level for further use. Circa 1994, the WILPG formed the Warwickshire Industrial Locomotive Trust to raise funds for building a new boiler, with 2047 being cosmetically restored and placed on static display at Kidderminster Railway Museum in the meanwhile.
{{As of December 20145 |2015|12}} the locomotive is undergoing an overhaul at the [[Bridgnorth Loco Works]]. The saddle tanks for 2047 and [[GWR 813 Saddle Tank]] can be seen stored outside the works on [[GWR 42343 Machinery Flat]]
