Intersting picture.
What ever became of this vehicle, as it seems to be part way through a conversion into someting rather than being scrapped.
I say this as it seems to have a "New" 27way Blue Star multi-working socket fitted beneath the rear buffer plank.
Obviously it's not "The Rocket" as that was 335, I can't think of whatever else it may be.

It was intended as a second support coach for DB999550 but conversion was abandoned.

It's true what people say "You learn something new every day".
So this was the second "Rocket".
Cheers Simon, information much appreciated.

This vehicle appears to be a 4TC driving trailer possibly from 8005/405 since the two intermediate coaches were seriously damaged by fire. The other DTC - or may be this one - was at Meldon Quarry and probably still is.
