    Looks like it had a major overhaul in 1963 including wheels out, not sure whether the boiler was removed.

    Plus this, similar to what alecw mentioned.

    92220 visited Crewe Works from 5. 2.63. to 2. 3. 63. for a light casual repair. No drama there. It also visited Swindon Works from 26. 2. 64 to 24. 3. 64 for a light casual repair. Its next works visit was to Crewe from 12. 66 for unspecified repairs.

    I thought it was withdrawn in 1965, so the 1966 Crewe visit must be something to do with preservation.
