<div id="Top"></div>__TOC__The SVR has over 80 around 70 passenger carriages, <ref>[https://www.svrtrust.org.uk/Carriage-Restoration SVR Charitable Trust, ''Carriage Restoration''</ref> dating from pre-grouping to BR Mk1s Mk1's of the early 1960s, with well over half of them in operational use.<br> The carriages are normally operated in six matching sets, or rakes, although it is not uncommon to see more than one livery in a train as individual carriages are temporarily withdrawn for repair or maintenance and others are substituted or added to increase passenger capacity.<br>Carriage sets usually consist of six to eight vehicles, although lengths up to ten carriages are not unusual. Carriage repairs and restorations are carried out at the [[Carriage Repair Works]]. The four five sets in regular timetabled use are;*Set C, British Rail Mark 1s 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 Rail Mark 1s Railways Mk1's in Maroon.*Set L, LMS (And and BR built to LMS design) in MaroonLMS Crimson Lake.
*Set N, LNER & GNR Teak
*Set GW2 (sometimes abbreviated to GW), GWR later period (1938 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 G, GWR, both pre & post grouping, in Chocolate & Cream. Normally only used during busy periods.*Set S, 'The [[Severn Valley Limited]]' diner set in GWR Chocolate & Cream. Pre book only, not shown on the timetable. *Set VV, 'The [[Severn Valley Venturer]]' two GWR Chocolate & Cream diner carriages attached to a regular service trainoperating 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.*Observation saloons[[GWR_80969_Inspection_Saloon|80969]] and [[GWR 80972 Inspection Saloon|80972]], two carriages which can be privately chartered and attached to a regular train. Several other *Autotrailers [[GWR 178 Autotrailer Third|178]] and [[GWR 238 Autotrailer Third|238]], two carriages are in use as volunteer accommodation or as storagesuitable for push-pull trains.
