1450 as a former resident
From 2013-16 it ran as a dedicated train with only one pre-booked sitting, not featured in the public timetable. It was formed as a five carriage train and had available only the 30 seats in the brake for non-diners, and so did not carry standard passengers. It was timetabled with restricted stops and in the down direction stopped only at [[Bewdley]] and [[Hampton Loade]] for pathing, crossing the up trains, otherwise running non-stop to Bridgnorth. On the return it stopped to set down at [[Highley]], so diners could opt to visit [[The Engine House]], then running fast to Kidderminster.<ref>[https://forum.svr-online.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2774 'Why is SVR Limited now just for diners?', SVR Online forum] (Retrieved 19 March 2017)</ref>
From 2018 it reverted to being non-advertised train of four to six coaches, with shorter formations allowing it to use one of the smaller locomotives. As an example, on 16 September 2018 then resident [[GWR 1450|Collett 1400 class 0-4-2T locomotive 1450]] was utilised on four coaches with a pathing stop at Arley northbound, and a timetabled stop at Highley and pathing stops at Arley and Bewdley on the return leg.
