The original non-corridor tender 5642 was later coupled to sister locomotive 60026 "Miles Beevor" when it was withdrawn on 21 December 1965 but later came into the possession of the A4 Preservation Society who had purchased this locomotive from the scrapyard to assist the restoration of classmate 4498 "Sir Nigel Gresley". It was scrapped in 1973 as being surplus to requirements, by which time it had also donated parts to the restoration of A3 class locomotive 4472 "Flying Scotsman", which had recently returned from America and was being restored at Derby Workshops.
