The Trust has also sourced some common components with the Bluebell Railway Standard Class 2 Project which is building BR Class 2MT 2-6-2 Tank Locomotive No 84030.
In 2011 the project was the beneficiary of SVRA's 'Cylinders for 82045' raffle. Including donations the gross income was over £21.000 with a net surplus of around £17,000.<ref>[https://forum.svr-online.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2346&highlight=raffle SVR Forum] (Retrieved 23 March 2019)</ref> In 2016 it was the Guarantee Company's "Slidebars and Crossheads" raffle which, in combination with an appeal to shareholders and further boosted by cash donations, generated over £30,000 for 82045.<ref>[http://www.82045.org.uk/news/82045_news-sep16.html News Update - September 2016, The 82045 SLT website] (Retrieved 23 March 2019)</ref>  In November 2022 it was the locomotive centrepiece at the National Model Railway show at the NEC organised by the Warley Model Railway Club<ref>[https://www.svrlive.com/bldec22 Branch Lines, December 2022]</ref>. The Trust plans to launch in 2025, but "''there may not be a demand for the locomotive to form part of the fleet [as the] SVR may be planning an operational fleet of as few as 5 locomotives''"<ref>[http://www.82045.org.uk/news/82045_news-feb24-chairmanschat.html Trust Chairman's blog, February 2024] (Retrieved 20 February 2024)</ref>.
