==Loco Shed==
Construction When preservation began, the former Bridgnorth goods shed was initially used as a loco shed although it was very restricted in size. In spring 1972 the [[Guarantee Company|SVR Company]] purchased the ex-B.R. Diesel Depot building at Heaton Mersey, Stockport.<ref>SVR News 23</ref> Later that year a large disused building at Portskewett, near Severn Tunnel Junction, was also identified as a possible loco shed building.<ref>SVR News 31</ref>. When the latter building was acquired in 1974, it was planned to begin construction using the Heaton Mersey building, with the Portskewett shed potentially being destined for the [[Stourport Triangle]].<ref>SVR News 33</ref> However when construction of the loco shed began in [[Severn Valley Railway Timeline 1970-1979#1976 | March 1976]] , it was done using parts of the former Portskewett Shed acquired for that purpose, with the pits being dug the following November and the building completed in April 1977.<ref>SVR News 44</ref>. The former ex-Heaton Mersey shed was added in 1978 to the rear of the ex-Portskewett Shed, adjacent to the Goods Shed.<ref>SVR News 49</ref>.
In 2009 an upgrade to the loco shed included the installation of roller shutter doors, side windows to improve lighting, and an enclosed paint shop. A capital project for a new roof, lighting and overhead crane planned for 2020-2021 was initially put on hold due to the effects of the [[2020 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic]].<ref>SVR(H) annual report and financial statements for the period ended 5 January 2020</ref> The [[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd]] intend to raise £80,000 during 2021, with a start to be made that summer<ref>SVR News212</ref>.
