Preservation Seven have been preserved. These are 46428, 46441, 46443, 46447, 46464, 46512 and 46521. 46521 is one of those built at Swindon and painted green. 46441 has been given an inauthentic livery of "what might have been" had the LMS had not been nationalised. It has been renumbered 6441 and painted in LMS passenger crimson lake livery, though even if the LMS had survived it would have probably remained in black. It has also been painted in BR marron livery that was only applied to a few express passenger locomotives.
