'''Goods wagons on the SVR'''
|+From this week's featured article
 
|
There are over one hundred goods wagons based on the SVR, dating from the 1880s to the 1980s, with examples from all four post-grouping railways, plus many pre-grouping, private owner and BR wagons. Most are preserved for historical interest, although others such as ballast or rail wagons perform a useful function on the railway.
[[<!--IMAGE FILE--> File:Highley_Signal_Box_20170618.jpg |thumb|centre|300px|link=<!--PAGE TO LINK TO--> Highley signal box|  
 
Highley Signal Box is an original McKenzie and Holland Type 3 signal box. It was built in 1883 and has not changed significantly since, apart from modifications to the interlocking of the lever frame. It previously controlled access to Highley's [[Collieries served by the Severn Valley Railway#Highley Colliery|colliery exchange sidings]] where [[The Engine House]] now stands. [[<!--PAGE TO LINK TO--> Highley signal box| (Full article...)]]]]  
While most wagons are in long term storage awaiting restoration or on static display at a fixed location, they are, by their nature, mobile, so any reference to current location is potentially inaccurate or out of date. Most of the wagons used in the [[Demonstration Goods Train]] are stored at [[Bewdley]].
 
Goods wagons are currently all stored in the open. A scheme to build a storage shed at Bewdley in the cutting of the former Stourport Line proved abortive. More recently a group was formed, known as the [[Wagon Review Group]] to try to revitalise this important project to improve display and restoration facilities and to provide much needed cover for at least part of the wagon fleet.
 
Cranes, crane runners and other miscellaneous items of rolling stock can be found under [[Other rolling stock]].

For 101 years between 1862 and 1963, the Severn Valley Railway formed part of the national railway network, running for 40 miles between Hartlebury and Shrewsbury. Established as a separate company, it was mainly operated by the [[Great Western Railway]] (GWR) and later by British Railways (BR).

== SR Wagons ==
The present day [[Severn Valley Railway]] (SVR) was established in 1965 to preserve part of the line as a heritage railway. Today it has [[list of stations | six stations and two halts]] and runs for 16 miles along the Severn Valley between [[Bridgnorth]] in Shropshire and [[Kidderminster]] in Worcestershire, following the course of the River Severn for much of its route. Train services are hauled predominantly by steam locomotives, regularly supplemented by a diesel multiple unit and diesel locomotive hauled trains.

Welcome to the Severn Valley Railway Wiki[edit | edit source]

From this week's featured article
Highley Signal Box is an original McKenzie and Holland Type 3 signal box. It was built in 1883 and has not changed significantly since, apart from modifications to the interlocking of the lever frame. It previously controlled access to Highley's colliery exchange sidings where The Engine House now stands. (Full article...)

For 101 years between 1862 and 1963, the Severn Valley Railway formed part of the national railway network, running for 40 miles between Hartlebury and Shrewsbury. Established as a separate company, it was mainly operated by the Great Western Railway (GWR) and later by British Railways (BR).

The present day Severn Valley Railway (SVR) was established in 1965 to preserve part of the line as a heritage railway. Today it has six stations and two halts and runs for 16 miles along the Severn Valley between Bridgnorth in Shropshire and Kidderminster in Worcestershire, following the course of the River Severn for much of its route. Train services are hauled predominantly by steam locomotives, regularly supplemented by a diesel multiple unit and diesel locomotive hauled trains.

This unofficial website is a project aimed to collect information and record events relating to the SVR, both past and present.

For timetables, fare information, and news about special events, please visit the SVR Official Website. Other news and information of interest to members, shareholders and enthusiasts can be found on SVRLive.
