No. 46233, which was withdrawn at the same time as No. 46229, was also purchased by Butlin's and it was displayed at its holiday camp at Ayr,{{r|Roden|p=120}} although – like No. 6229 ''Duchess of Hamilton'' at Minehead – it was stripped of its smoke deflectors and painted in pseudo-LMS livery. {{r|Jenkinson|loc=Plate 70}} By 1971 it had similarly deteriorated due to the salty seaside air and was in need of expensive maintenance. It was rescued by [[Alan Bloom]], owner of Norfolk-based "Bloom's of Bressingham" nurseries; he had already taken over the [[LMS Royal Scot Class|Royal Scot Class]] No. 6100 from [[Butlins Skegness|Butlin's Skegness holiday camp]]. In March 1971 No. 46233 was taken by rail and road to Bressingham on permanent loan.{{r|Roden|pp=132–135}}

Over the course of the next few years, Bloom spent some £16,000 restoring the locomotive (along with some 20,000 man hours) and in May 1974 it was restored to steam once more. Unfortunately, as 1976 progressed it was discovered that No. 46233 would require a new firebox tubeplate at a projected cost of £12,000. Bloom was not prepared to spend further money at this time and the engine became a static exhibit at Bressingham.{{r|Roden|pp=137–138}}

In 1989 Bloom bought the locomotive outright.{{r|Roden|p=157}} During 1993 it was moved temporarily to the [[East Lancashire Railway]] at Bury near Manchester and whilst there an exercise was undertaken to establish what repairs were necessary and how much they would cost. It was found that the extensive list amounted to £162,000 and no business plan could be found that would support such expenditure.{{r|Roden|pp=157–158}}

In November 1995 the Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust purchased the locomotive for £200,000 (through a third party) and the following February it was transferred to the Trust's premises at the Midland Railway in Butterley, Derbyshire.{{r|Roden|pp=158–162}} In 1998, funded by public donation and the [[Heritage Lottery Fund]], the third party purchaser was paid off and the money was now available to restore the locomotive. The work was carried out at the railway workshops at Swanwick Junction and in July 2001 the restored locomotive was allowed a trial run on the national rail network, where it promptly broke down and had to be towed home. With the fault fixed, No. 46233 now started to generate income by hauling enthusiasts' trains,{{r|Roden|pp=166–177}} as well as the Royal Train on two occasions.{{r|Roden|pp=203–207, 215–217}} Following another overhaul commencing in 2010, the locomotive resumed its steaming duties in 2012 this time wearing BR Lined Green with the early BR crest. This livery being chosen following a vote run by the PRCLT for what the engine would wear after its overhaul.<ref>{{cite news |url=https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-derbyshire-17236477 |title=Midland Railway's 'Royal' steam locomotive can ride again |date=3 March 2012 |work=BBC News – Derbyshire}}</ref> It had originally been intended that 46233 would wear BR green for a year after returning to steam in 2012 before returning to its LMS Crimson lake identity a year later, it would however stay in its BR identity for an additional five years until the end of 2017. In early 2017 it had its early BR emblem replaced with the later crest and on its cabside it had the yellow cabside stripe applied, (in BR days the stripe was applied to locos which were not permitted to run under the overhead wires south of Crewe). During repairs which were undertaken at Butterley in 2018 the engine was repainted into its LMS crimson lake identity with its four digit LMS number. {{As of|2025|April}}, 6233 is still owned by the Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust and still pulling enthusiasts' specials.<ref name="prclt">{{cite web |url=http://www.prclt.co.uk/pmr-tours.html |title=PMR Tours |publisher=Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust |access-date=26 October 2016}}</ref><ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.prclt.co.uk/locomotives.html |title=Locomotives |publisher=Princess Royal Class Locomotive Trust |access-date=26 October 2016}}</ref>
