Changes

20 ton 'Toad' Brake Van 17410 was built at Swindon in 1940 to , one of a batch of 100 financed by the War Department but taken straight into GWR stock. The diagram number was AA.21, lot number 1370 and . It was vacuum fittedwith screw couplings. When last in SVR service it was lettered in late GWR style grey livery and allocated to "Bristol RU".

It arrived on the SVR in November 1970 and was restored the following year, after which it saw regular use by the PW Department. Following withdrawal as surplus to PW requirements and in very poor condition it languished in Bewdley yard, but in December 2015 its restoration, by the LNER Carriage Group, started. Construction of a new pair of side doors, using the original ironwork is underway (Jan 2016). The layers of paint were removed from the interior, when it was found that its first, "as built" internal finish was scumble grained in imitation beech and cedar with a light oak ceiling. The number 17410 was stencilled opposite the guard's seat in pink lettering, with the word "CARDIFF" (presumably its first allocation) below. Its later (presumed BR) interior finish was off white (ivory) and bauxite with a white ceiling. The sanding gear is currently missing, and the GWR drawing has been located. Its hard to read, and LNER Group members are preparing working drawings to enable a new set to be constructed.  It is intended to restore it to as near original condition as reasonably possible, and in GWR livery, but BR bauxite has not been ruled out as a possibility for the future. {{As of|2015|11}}, 17410 is owned by "17410 Fund", although it is proposed that but the Fund intends soon to transfer ownership will soon be transferred to the [[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd|SVR Charitable Trust]] <ref>[http://www.lnersvrcoachfund.org.uk/gwr_toad_17410.pdf Public Notice GWR ‘Toad’ 17410], dated 01/09/2015, accessed 10/11/2015</ref>.
