Timeline of events on the SVR: date of last public services
The railway reopened in February 2020 as planned, operating between [[Bridgnorth]] and [[Bewdley]] only, due to repairs on [[Falling Sands Viaduct]] and track relaying between there and [[Bewdley Tunnel]]. It was intended to reopen the line throughout from 4 April.
The last public trains ran on Sunday 15 March. The SVR monitored the developing situation daily and followed Government guidelines, considering the utmost importance was the safety and well-being of volunteers, staff and customers. Due to the changing situation Government advice also changed surrounding gatherings, to which the SVR responded as it felt was necessary and sensible.
*17 March: it postponed train services for the rest of the month.
*15 April: the total closure was extended until at least the end of June, and the 1940s event cancelled.
*16 April: the appeal reached £416,193.
*24 April: the appeal passed £565,000.
