It's probably fine but unlikely to be run in the near future. The set is in the reserve collection at the National Media Museum, Bradford, in the north of England.

Pity they don't run it once in a while. Sort of pointless to rebuild one and then never use it. I understand limiting the hours of course but still.

This is part of the usual musuem question of preservation versus conservation and restoration. It's a big subject in the whole world of museum keeping. You can argue it in various ways and there will be no fully satisfactory conclusions.
