Changes

Following withdrawal, 5164 resumed its place in the SVR's 'overhaul queue'. In March 2014 it was moved to the Barrow Hill Roundhouse Railway Centre,<ref>[https://forum.svr-online.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=964 SVR-Online forum thread 'GWR 2-6-2T 5164'] (Retrieved 14 February 2017)</ref><ref>[http://www.barrowhill.org/collections.html Barrow Hill Roundhouse] (Retrieved 26 January 2020)</ref> where it could be stored under cover as a static exhibit. While there it was cared for by members of the owning group, The 5164 Preservation Group. However the Group was an unincorporated organisation with a small and diminishing group of shareholders. In 2020 the remaining shareholders agreed to offer the locomotive to the [[The Erlestoke Manor Fund]] for a nominal sum in order to secure the locomotive’s future within an incorporated, charitable organisation strongly affiliated to the SVR.<ref>EMF Newsletter no 75 August 2020</ref>.  After negotiations between the Group, the EMF and the SVR, the transfer of ownership to the EMF for a nominal sum was completed in November 2021.<ref>EMF Newsletter no 78, November 2021</ref>  In January 2022 the EMF announced that their members had agreed to a change of the Fund's Articles, allowing fund raising for an overhaul to begin.<ref>[https://www.erlestokemanorfund.co.uk/announcement-emf-shareholders-approve-proposal-to-restore-5164-to-steam / EMF Announcement January 2022]</ref> In July 2022 the EMF announced the launch of an appeal to raise funds to return 5164 to service<ref>[https://www.erlestokemanorfund.co.uk/the-big-large-prairie-appeal-returning-5164-to-service/ EMF Shareholders approve proposal : ''The Big "Large Prairie" Appeal – Returning 5164 to restore service''] (retrieved 1 August 2022)</ref>. In April 2023 the EMF advised that they had accepted an invitation for 5164 to appear at the Warley Model Railway Exhibition at the Birmingham NEC on 25-26 November 2023, with the movement being used as an effective way of returning the locomotive closer to home ahead of its overhaul actively commencing once 7802 has returned to steam!|.<ref>EMF Newsletter no 81, April 2023</ref>
