Bewdley MPD is a small open-air loco servicing facility, located at the South end of the [[Rock Siding]] at [[Bewdley]], consisting of an ash pit and some light repair facilities. It is used by steam locomotives on diagrams originating from [[Kidderminster]], as no steam locomotive facilities exist at Kidderminster. Watering facilities are not available on the Rock Siding (although they are on Platforms 2 and 3 at Bewdley), so locomotives will generally take water at Kidderminster. Similarly, coal is usually taken on arrival at [[Bridgnorth]] later in the day, with a single loading being sufficient for a normal day's work of two round trips.
