Goods train crossing Victoria Bridge
Goods wagons on the SVR
There are over one hundred goods wagons based on the SVR, dating from the 1890s to the 1970s, with examples from all four post-grouping railways, plus many pre-grouping, private owner and BR wagons.
Most are preserved for historical interest, yet some, such as ballast or rail wagons, can also perform a useful function on the railway.
While most wagons are in long term storage awaiting restoration or on static display at a fixed location, they are, by their nature, mobile, so any reference to current location is potentially inaccurate or out of date. Most of the wagons used in the Demonstration Goods Train are stored at Bewdley
