additional info and history
'''Bridgnorth MPD''' comprises [[Bridgnorth Loco Works]] and the associated coaling, watering and storage facilities. It also includes several rented commercial premises in Station Lane including that known as the Graham Hill building (containing the staff mess room and [[Severn Valley Railway Engineering Services|ESMP]] offices) and the former David Dexter's car service garage (used for additional storage).
The In the early days of preservation, the public had free access to the MPD. However after almost two years of discussions, the Health and Safety Executive issued a directive at the start of 1992 banning the public from access to the yard and shed areas.<ref>SVR News 104, pp 3, 16.</ref> Since that time the MPD is not normally open to the public except during special events such as the [[Open House Weekend]]. At other times a limited view is available from Platform 2 or the footbridge.
[[Cowans Sheldon 30-ton steam crane RS 1087]] and several well wagons, used to store locomotive boilers and other large parts, are stabled at Bridgnorth MPD.
