The former Internal User number signified Departmental Coaching stock within the Western Region that did not normally move or had its movements confined to a particular depot or yard. The latter number signifying hauled non-passenger carrying use; all four of the SVR TKs formed part of the Swindon GWR test train which was used for load testing of diesel locomotives.

==Preservation==The entire 9-coach test train was sold into preservation in 1969, with the four coaches being bought for the SVRand arriving on 19 December. All four Full Thirds were restored between 1970 and 1973, and saw service on [[The Severn Valley Railway on the main line#SVR Carriages used on the main line | SVR excursions on the main line]] as well as on the SVR itself. The coach was also used in Carlton's made-for-TV movie '[[Goodnight Mister Tom]]' in 1998 along with two other Great western coaches.

As of July 2015, 1087 is in service and is normally used in [[Carriages#The carriage sets|set GW2GW]].
