→7812 Erlestoke Manor in preservation: Boiler ticket extension
In due course, Erlestoke Manor’s own overhaul was completed in time for a return to service in 2008. On 26 August 2016, the engine emulated sister Bradley Manor by achieving 100,000 miles of running in preservation, the event being commemorated with a special headboard announcing "Still going strong -- 100,000 miles".<ref>[https://www.facebook.com/svrofficial/posts/1083453811732320 SVR Official Facebook Page], "Erlestoke Manor strikes gold", retrieved 30/08/2016</ref>
Erlestoke Manor's current 10 year 'ticket' will expire in at the end of 2017. The Erlestoke Manor Fund's goal is "''To overhaul Erlestoke Manor 7812 during 2018 and 2019 for its return to service in 2020''".<ref>[http://www.erlestokemanorfund.co.uk/about-us/our-goals/ EMF Web site 'Our Goals and Objectives' page]</ref>
