She arrived at the SGLR in a poor state of repair which, along with the lack of controller, meant she was dumped around various sidings untouched. Eventually she was bought in 2004, and work finally started on her restoration. Following removal from the site for shotblasting, the frames have been repainted and simultaneously the axleboxes overhauled. Now back on site, she is currently a rolling chassis with brake gear being overhauled. Where necessary, new parts are being machined by her owner. Work is also currently underway on the manufacture of a replacement controller, making use of contactors and resistances from other electrical machines. Future work includes overhaul of the two traction motors, some attention to one of the gearboxes and re-cabling prior to reassembly.
