'''Rail car workings'''
 
The page below is extracted from the GWR's internal document "GWR Birmingham and Worcester Divisions, Working of Coaches (rail motor, auto cars etc), 5 October 1942". It shows the working arrangements for the [[Railcar 22|GWR Railcars]] which were based at Worcester. Three cars ("A", "B", and "C") were used daily. "B" mainly served the Severn Valley Branch, including services to and from Highley mainly for the use of miners working at [[Collieries served by the Severn Valley Railway#Highley Colliery|Highley Colliery]]. "C" mainly served the Tenbury Branch. Both "B" and "C" are referred to as "New type", presumably referring to the modified 1940 "razor-edge" design which followed on from the original 18 "flying banana" cars.
