A GWR takeover of the Bluebell Railway for the line's 2024 Branch Line Gala Weekend, with GWR Manor Class 7812 'Erlestoke Manor', 5700 Class Pannier Tank 7714 and Collett Pannier Tank 1369 all running on the railway alongside a selection of the Bluebell home fleet, in addition to BR(W) Modified Hall Class 6989 'Wightwick Hall' on extended loan from The Buckinghamshire Railway Centre.

Over the event, BR Standard 4MT Tank 80151 took on the guise of fellow Classmate 80100. Whilst No.100 still remains today, and likewise is a member of the Bluebell's fleet, the loco has never ran in preservation, having been stored in scrap condition ever since her arrival to the Bluebell in 1978 from Woodham Brothers at Barry.
