Early in 2016, a principal supplier of 24 Volt LED lamp bulbs introduced a 40 Watt equivalent "golf ball" style bulb, the installation of which would improve lighting levels and reduce power consumption. A public appeal raised sufficient money to replace all of the lamp bulbs in the LNER carriages of set N. The electrician reports that since the replacement, Set N has required very little top up charging from battery chargers as the dynamos are now able to supply sufficient current to charge the batteries (as they should).
In March 2016 the [[The LNER(SVR) Coach Fund |LNER (SVR) Coach Fund]] donated 2701 to the [[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd|SVR Charitable Trust ]] for long term safekeeping.
