Once the additions had been added a test run was carried out between Bristol and Swindon during which Manorbier Castle achieved a speed of 100mph, but the experiment did not have any lasting effect on GWR locomotive design and the additions were later removed.[12].

They proved to be a successful design which handled the heaviest long distance express trains and established the design principles . To replace some of these earlier locomotives, Armstrong put broad gauge wheels on his standard gauge 1076 Class and from this time on GWR locomotives were given numbers rather than the names that had been carried by broad gauge locomotives up till then. It was preceded at ten-minute intervals by another six trains hauled by Castle-class engines, each carrying royal and other important mourners. 4082 was withdrawn from service in 1964 as 7013 and 7013 was withdrawn from service as 4082 in 1965.
