In early 1990s it was moved to Bitton to provide a covered workshop for restoration of various major components of 80104 and 80078. Moved belatedly to Midsomer Norton owing to lack of room or need for it at Swanage. It is on indefinite loan to MN with no intention or requirement to return it to Swanage. Much refurbishment work has been undertaken by MN.
