→History: 50033 add Class 50 Golden Jubilee and 50033 return to traffic
50007 Hercules was acquired in November 2016 to be used primarily for mainline contract work.<ref>[http://www.fiftyfund.org.uk/50007Purchase20161107.pdf Press release 7 November 2016]</ref> From early 2017 she moved to [[Diesel Depot|Kidderminster TMD]] but, unlike the other Fifty Fund operated locomotives, there is no running agreement with the SVR.
50033 Glorious was taken on loan in February 2018 from Tyseley Loco Works for an initial three year period, to restore it to operating condition and to operate it. Work on the locomotive continued at Tyseley under the guidance of Fifty Fund volunteers<ref>[http://www.fiftyfund.org.uk/index.php Fifty Fund wesite] (Retrieved 11 February 2018)</ref> before the locomotive moved to the [[Diesel Depot]] in June 2018 for contract work. It returned to traffic at the [[Tales from the Severn Valley#Class_50_Golden_Jubilee|Class 50 Golden Jubilee]] on 4-6 October in mostly green undercoat, with the public invited to 'tag' the locomotive with graffiti in marker pen in exchange for a contribution towards its repaint.
