With it being out of use at Daventry's IRFT, 08577 was put into store on the morning of the 22nd April 2004. Sometime during the same day, it was removed to Bescot for attention, being replaced at the FLT by 08757. With repairs completed, the 08 was loaded and taken back to Daventry on the 18th May. Transferring to the WSWM pool, it was reinstated back to traffic on the 23rd May. Due to faults though, it was once again put into store and WNTR on the 22nd September, moving back to Bescot the next day.

It currently resides in the middle of the yard, amongst the other stored locos.
