Sir Nigel Gresley (operational), No 60008
Dwight D Eisenhower (static, shipped in from Wisconsin), No 60009
Union of South Africa (operational), No 4464
Bittern (operational, often masquerades as other class-members), No 4468
Mallard (static), and the front buffer of No 4489
Dominion of Canada (static, shipped from Canada). The numbers are different formats because the first three are carrying British Rail liveries and numbers, while the others are in their original LNER forms.
