Service
31420 was built by BR at Wolverton in 1950 to LMS Diagram 2171, lot 1588.[1] It later carried the BR number M31420M.[2] After main line service ended in 1981, 31420 was used as a stationery stores vehicle at the BR printing works at Crewe, where it was given the departmental number XDB 977023[3].
Preservation
It arrived on the SVR from Stonebridge Park, North London on 29 October 1992, initially intended as a source of bogie spares.[4] However it has remained intact, being mainly used as a components store at Kidderminster Carriage Works. Unlike the other SVR's other LMS-designed but BR-built carriages, 31420 was in the BR Crimson and Cream livery which it would have carried when entering service until a repaint in March 2017.
