Railway scenes in [[Goodnight Mister Tom]], a 1998 made-for-TV Movie, were mainly filmed at the SVR but two scenes depicting a London station were filmed at Loughborough on the Great Central Railway. For those scenes 6990 was used as a stand-in for SVR-resident [[GWR Mogul 7325]], whose number plates it carried.
