==34606 in service and preservation==
34606 arrived on the SVR in 2012 from the Great Central Railway, having been purchased by [[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC | SVR(H)]]. It is converted with roller shutter doors and is used in conjunction with the [[Christmas services|Santa services]], for which it is normally located in the bay platform opposite Kidderminster Railway Museum as seen in the photograph. At other times it is normally stored in or around the [[Kidderminster Carriage Shed|carriage shed]]. It carries the later Departmental number but without the 'A' prefix which denoted use by the Mechanical & Electrical Engineers department.
