Having completed nearly 90,000 miles of test running since new, Sir Nigel Gresley's W1 4-6-4HP 10000 entered Darlington Works on 21 August 1935 for what was anticipated to be a major overhaul and modification. During this period Gresley decided that it was time to rebuild 10000 as a three cylinder locomotive with a conventional firetube boiler and 10000 was moved to Doncaster Works on 13 October 1936, the first drawing for the modification being prepared at the end of November. When 10000 was finally released from Doncaster Works in November 1937, it was a significantly different locomotive; being fitted with a diagram 111 boiler that was very similar to the diagram 108 boiler fitted to 2006 Wolf of Badenoch, and with a streamlined casing to the same pattern as the A4 class.

Number 61 was delivered straight to the S&DJR in 1922, the last of five locomotives to be delivered they would receive the internal power classification 5P4G, slightly higher than that given by the Midland Railway and the LMS. These 5 examples were built by Armstrong-Whitworth, as were all Midland 4Fs constructed in that year. The locomotive would become part of the LMS in 1930 and would receive the number 4561. Just prior to its entry into BR service in 1948 and its renumbering to 44561, the locomotive would be converted to oil burning albeit temporarily. The locomotive would be withdrawn in April 1962 and scrapped with haste after.

On entry to BR service the locomotive would become 40635. Withdrawn in 1961, the locomotive would be stored at Llandudno Junction throughout 1962 before being scrapped in June 1963.
