One of only two examples, and to date the only one in running order, it is powered by two 9.6 Litre 8-Cylinder AEC engines through a Wilson epicyclic gearbox. Externally it has been almost completely repanelled and underwent a complete repaint in 1992/93.

Fully operational, an ongoing programme of mechanical & electrical overhaul is gradually proceeding around rostered open days
