*1862: When the original Severn Valley Railway opened, Bridgnorth Station is the principal intermediate station between Hartlebury and Shrewsbury. The station building is made of stone in a Jacobean architectural style.
At the end of 1963 Bridgnorth and all the other Severn Valley line stations except Bewdley and Stourport are closed completely, and the track is taken up between Bridgnorth and Buildwas.<ref>Information from the Bridgnorth Station website</ref>
