The five sets in regular timetabled use are;
*Set C, British Railways Mk1's in Crimson & Cream<ref>[httphttps://www.bloodandcustard.com/bloodandcustardhistory.html org www.bloodandcustard.comorg] states that Crimson and Cream rather than Carmine and Cream was the description used by BR</ref>.
*Set M, British Railways Mk1's in Maroon.
*Set L, LMS (and BR built to LMS design) in LMS Crimson Lake.
*Set N, LNER & GNR Teak
*Set GW2 (sometimes abbreviated to GW), GWR later period (post-grouping1938 to 1947) in GWR Chocolate & Cream. The SVR is in the process of creating a second GWR set (GW1) which will consist of early (1910 to early 1930s) stock in older liveries.
Other sets and carriages in operational use are;
*Set S, 'The [[Severn Valley Limited]]' diner set in GWR Chocolate & Cream. For a period to 2016 this was pre-book only, not shown on the timetable. From 2017 it is reduced to four coaches in order to allow the railway to operate smaller locomotives, and on a Sunday has two additional vehicles added to allow three coaches for standard passenger accommodation.<ref>Noticeboard Issue February 2017</ref>
*Set VV, 'The [[Severn Valley Venturer]]' carriages attached to a service train operating from Bridgnorth. Comprised of [[BR 1682 Restaurant Buffet]] and [[BR 3103 First Open]].
*Set T, the 'Toplights', comprising GWR pre-grouping coaches plus spare serviceable GWR vehicles not required in GW. Very occasional use for charters, galas, and filming.
Several other carriages are in use as volunteer accommodation or as storage.

The individual carriages used to make up any set can vary from day to day depending on availability and operational requirements. It is usual to see the Brakebrake, Buffet buffet and Disabled Access [[:Category: Wheelchair-accessible adapted carriages|disabled access carriage ]] located in the centre of each set. There is a spare Brake brake vehicle available for each of the main sets. '''Services resuming from 1 August 2020 following the [[2020 coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic]] will be formed of three rakes of mostly compartment stock, to enable better social distancing. *Set C/M 'Adventurer' services - [[BR 21254 Brake Composite Corridor]], [[BR 25498 Corridor Second |BR 25498 Standard Corridor]], [[BR 4399 Tourist Standard Open]] (wheelchair), [[BR 34562 Brake Second Corridor | BR 34562 Brake Standard Corridor]], [[BR 16202 Composite Corridor]], [[BR 25346 Standard Corridor]], [[BR 25771 Corridor Second | BR 25771 Standard Corridor]].*Set GW 'Explorer' services - [[GWR 3930 Full Third]], [[GWR 1086 Full Third | GWR 1086 Third Corridor]], [[GWR 9055 Nondescript Saloon]] (wheelchair), [[GWR 6562 Brake Composite]], [[GWR 1116 Full Third | GWR 1116 Third Corridor]], [[GWR 1146 Full Third | GWR 1146 Third Corridor]], [[LMS 26986 Brake Third Corridor]].*Set L/N 'Flyer' services - [[GNR 2701 Composite Corridor]], [[LMS 24617 Corridor Composite | LMS 24617 Composite Corridor]], [[LMS Brake Third Corridor 26880 | LMS 26880 Brake Third Corridor]] (wheelchair), [[GWR 6913 Brake Composite]], [[LMS Corridor Third 2300 | LMS 2300 Third Corridor]], [[LMS 12992 Corridor Third | LMS 12992 Third Corridor]], [[GWR 829 Full Third | GWR 829 Third Corridor]].'''

For the Pacific Power event in September 2016, a 9 coach teak set was utilised with [[LNER 7960 Kitchen Composite|7960]], the first time such a set has been put together since the 2 May 1964<ref>[https://forum.svr-online.org.uk/viewtopic.php?p=51701#51701 SVRA Forum]</ref> - by this point, the coaches had been painted in BR maroon, and it is thought the last time a 9 coach set in varnished teak livery was seen was in the early 1950s.
