A number of the stations on the branch had 'cattle docks' from which loaded cattle wagons could be collected. The 1936 GWR 'General Appendix to the Rule Book' stated that "''In dealing with Live Stock, including horses, cattle, sheep, pigs and goats, care and patience must be shown, not only in loading and unloading, but also in their treatment during transit, and in or about the yards, pens, sheds and stations, in order to avoid fright or injury, and consequent suffering on the part of the animals.''"<ref>[[Bibliography#Books|Vanns (2017)]] p. 37.</ref> Post-War, cattle trains ran on market days as required from Bridgnorth on alternate Mondays and Tenbury on alternate Tuesdays to Bordesley via Kidderminster<ref>[[Bibliography#Books|Turley (2005) p. 80.]]</ref>
