How to match two lines by a common ID within the same file and extract a field from the second line?

How can I match 2 lines of the same file that have a random number of other lines between them?

1111 Start Sub Transaction. New Id 1115
other lines here 
1115 Transaction End. No Funds Available

I need to match them on ID = 1115 and extract the result (in this case "No Funds Available").
Thank you.
