The original 1874 [[Loop Line specification and contract]] quoted mileages from Bewdley South junction towards Kidderminster. Drawings of the main items of infrastructure were described as follows: *'''Bridge at 0m 46.88''' ([[Devil's Spittleful (Rifle Range) Bridge]])<br>*'''Tunnel from 1m 4 Ch<span style="vertical-align:super;font-size:small">s</span> to 1m 26''' ([[Bewdley Tunnel]])<br>*'''Bridge at 1m 61.15''' ([[Stourport Road Bridge]])<br>*'''Bridge at 1m 7 Ch<span style="vertical-align:super;font-size:small">s</span> and Culverts''' ([[Underbridge off Lisle Avenue]])<br>*'''Viaduct from 2m 11.63 Ch<span style="vertical-align:super;font-size:small">s</span> to 2m 17.72''' ([[Falling Sands Viaduct]])<br>*'''Bridge at 2m 26.72''' ([[Worcester Road Bridge]])<br>*'''Bridge at 2m 46.30''' ([[Hoo Road Bridge]]) Early OS maps show the locations of mileposts on the loop line which do not accord with appear to reflect this method of calculation. Mileposts appear just east of Rifle Range Halt (see map below), just west of [[Stourport Road Bridge]] (the location of [[Foley Park Halt]]), and just south of Kidderminster Junction (see map below). This discrepancy could can be accounted for if the earlier mileages were instead based on a reversal at Bewdley and then travelling towards Kidderminster, ie:
