On Sunday 23rd March 2025 the Pannier tank 9681 was required to power a driver experience day so Uskmouth was called in to work the service train assisted by diesel shunter 08769.

The train was made up of three coaches and departure from Norchard low level was with both locomotives working as a pair.

Once at Lydney junction they were set in to top and tail mode for the day with some alterations along the way.
