Became GWR 6414. Condemned 10/26. With similar 6409 recovered 10/10 from bungalow in woodland at Crab's Cross, Redditch, Worcestershire. Both this and 6409 were built as 1st/2nd Composites (three First, three Second class compartments). Latterly 6409 was the kitchen/dining room and 6414 was bedroom/bathroom.
