Having been withdrawn at the close of the 1987 season, this coach remains in store; initially it was placed in the most southerly road of the old carriage shed in front of No. 5 Mona and No. 6 Peveril with several other "pairs" coaches. When the carriage shed was demolished to make way for the new transport headquarters incorporating bus maintenance garages in 1998, the vehicle was moved into the old bus garage at Homefield in upper Douglas where it remained until the lease expired in November 2009 at which point it was relocated to the railway, being now stored under a tarpaulin at Port St. Mary Station.
