Witherslack Hall, now complete with the Hawksworth tender, visited the SVR in March 2016. The locomotive was unfortunately unable to take part in the Spring Gala, having suffered a hot box during running trials after delivery. However the locomotive was repaired in time to work service trains over the following Easter weekend, and is pictured awaiting ‘right away’ at Bridgnorth on Good Friday afternoon. It also worked service trains on a further two weekends.
The locomotive revisited on hire for the 2018-19 winter season, arriving on 28 November 2018 with a return to the GCR scheduled after 9 January 2019.<ref>SVR Web site</ref>.
[[Goodnight Mister Tom]], a 1998 made-for-TV Movie, was filmed partly at the SVR and partly at the Great Central Railway. In scenes filmed at Loughborough 6960 carried the number plates of SVR-resident [[GWR Mogul 7325]].
