The unique 4-SUB unit, 4732, has finally landed at the Locomotive Storage Ltd site in Margate; better known to most as the old Hornby warehousing and now residing alongside the unique Class 503 unit and 60019 'Bittern'.
At this point, the highlights of the press release are:

"The total for both units over a ten year timescale will be in excess of £1,000,000 to bring them up to Heritage railway operation and display standard."
