5572 was built in 1929 and was almost the last produced (two from the end).
In its later years it moved to South Wales where, unusually for this class, it was equipped with auto-gear for working push-and-pull trains on the valley branch lines. Of the thirteen engines of this very useful class to have survived into preservation, 5572 is the only one so fitted.

It was withdrawn by BR in April 1962, being sent to Woodham Bros of Barry for breaking up.
It was bought by the Great Western Society in August 1971, and sent to its Taunton depot, being partially restored there before coming to Didcot in 1977.

The locomotive was returned to steam again in 1985.

Having reached the end of its ten year boiler certificate, it is awaiting heavy repairs at Didcot Railway Centre.
