26921 arrived on the SVR from Didcot in August 1968, having been acquired by SVR(H). It entered service in 1968, and was one of three SVR coaches which attended the Rocket 150 celebrations at Rainhill in May 1980. SVR service continued until 1984 when 26921 suffered damage to a bogie due to steel left on the track by vandals[1]. As of 2017[update], the coach is undergoing an overhaul at Bridgnorth following which it will be used as a sales coach.[2].
