[edit] Preservation

Preserved No. 51218, 14 October 2001, with a special headboard marking her centenary.

The same engine wearing its L&YR identity as No. 68 in L&YR livery at Ingrow West on 9 October 2004.

Two have survived to preservation, these are L&YR 68 (later LMS 11218 and BR 51218) and 1910-built L&YR 19 (LMS 11243). 51218 is in working condition on the Keighley and Worth Valley Railway, but because of its low power is not used on passenger trains but makes appearances at galas. 19 was sold by the LMS in 1931 into industrial use, but is unlikely to be steamed again.
