It was used as a tool and workshop van at Kidderminster, receiving a repaint into SR Malachite green livery at the [[Carriage Repair Works|North Star Carriage Works]] at Kidderminster in 1997.<ref name=SB9/>. It received another repaint in 2004 as part of a work experience scheme; SVR News reported at the time that the wagon was owned by C&W volunteer Brian Bessey.<ref>SVR News 149</ref>
In 2022 Stock Book 8 (1990) recorded the owner as J.A. McNally. Stock Book 9 (1998) recorded it as B Bessey and J. McNally.
