==Other proposals after the opening of the SVR in 1862==
[[File:Birmingham, Kidderminster and Stourport Railway 1892.jpg|thumb|300px|right|Plan of part of the Birmingham, Kidderminster and Stourport Railway]]After 1862, the following railways were proposed to form a junction with , or cross, the SVR (incomplete list)
===Stourbridge Railway, Valley of the Stour Extension===
Some time after opening in 1908, the CM&DPLR considered an extension to Billingsley, whose [[Collieries served by the Severn Valley Railway|colliery]] was instead served by a [[Kinlet and Billingsley Sidings signal box|branch from the SVR]] authorised in 1911 and opened in 1913. In 1912 the railway considered three other possible extensions from the terminus at Ditton Priors, one of which would have joined the SVR near Bridgnorth. None of the extensions were taken up after the First World War<ref>[[Bibliography#Other References|Price (1995)]] pp.39-40.</ref>.
===Birmingham, Kidderminster and Stourport Railway===
Proposed in 1892, a branch of this railway would have crossed the Loop Line near Falling Sands Viaduct and the SVR near Stourport Station, ending at the Basin in Stourport.
