346 arrived on the SVR from Moreton in the early 1970s, and was for a time painted in a fictitious SVR S&T Department livery numbered 8718. It was repainted into Cadbury's livery in 1982 and renumbered 346.<ref name=SB9/>
In [[Severn Valley Railway Timeline 1990-1999#1990 | June 1990]], 346 was one of the wagons in the demonstration goods train for the the "Heavy Freight Weekend" event. A number of the wagons were derailed on trap points at the north end of Bridgnorth station at the end of the event. Damage to 346 was fortunately limited to bent break brake gear, and the wagon was returned to service later in the year after this was repaired.<ref>SVR News 98</ref>
The 2012 photo by Gareth Price below shows the van awaiting overhaul and repainting. This had been completed by March 2015 (main photo above).
