In autumn 1996 the Group acquired its final car, unpowered Driving Trailer Composite 56208, giving an additional 65 seats capacity. With 5 operational cars the Group was then in a position to operate two different sets depending on seasonal demand, at that time unique in preservation. Although formal dining ended in 1999, the traditional summer evening cruises with bar and buffet continue to the present day.
M51395 M51935 was extensively damaged by fire in May 2008 in what was believed to be an arson attack. The Group acquired powered car M50933/53933 as a replacement. 51395 51935 was transported off site and completely dismantled. A significant number of components, including body panels, were able to be recovered for use elsewhere.
