In 1874 a Bill was brought before Parliament for construction of the [[Kidderminster Loop Line#1874 | West Staffordshire Railway]], which was to link Wolverhampton directly to the [[Tenbury Branch | Tenbury and Bewdley Railway]] at [[Dowles Bridge]] with a branch connection to Bewdley. This project had the backing of the LNWR, who were becoming frustrated by the lack of progress in constructing the [[Kidderminster Loop Line | Kidderminster Loop]] between Bewdley and Kidderminster. Although the 1874 Bill failed, it probably brought pressure to bear on the GWR to complete the Loop.
