→LMR 600 Gordon in preservation: add link
Gordon saw regular use in the early days of the SVR. In August [[Severn Valley Railway Timeline 1970-1979#1975 | 1975]] it travelled to Shildon under its own power to attend the Rail 150 celebrations, and in [[Severn Valley Railway Timeline 1980-1989#1980 | 1980]] it travelled in light steam to Bold Colliery from where it participated in the locomotive parade at Rocket 150 at Rainhill. It last saw service on the SVR in 1999.
Gordon remained Army property until July 2008 when, by then the last steam locomotive owned by the Army, it was donated to the SVR. It is now owned by [[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC | SVR(H) ]] and as of October 2015 is on display in [[The Engine House]] at Highley.
