<div id==GWR Designed Coaches== "Top"></div>__TOC__The SVR has around 70 passenger carriages,<ref>[https://www.svrtrust.org.uk/Carriage-Restoration SVR Charitable Trust, ''Carriage Restoration''</ref> dating from pre-grouping to BR Mk1's of the early 1960s, with well over half of them in operational use. 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or rakes, although it is not uncommon to see more than one livery in a train as individual carriages are temporarily withdrawn for repair or maintenance and others are substituted or added to increase passenger capacity. 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 five sets in regular timetabled use are;*Set C, British Railways Mk1's in Crimson & Cream<ref>[https://www.bloodandcustard.org www.bloodandcustard.org] 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 (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 S, 'The [[Severn Valley Limited]]' diner set in GWR Chocolate & Cream. *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. *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.*Autotrailers [[GWR 178 Autotrailer Third|178]] and [[GWR 238 Autotrailer Third|238]], two carriages suitable for push-pull trains. The lists below also include sundry other carriages in use as volunteer accommodation or as storage, and [[:Category:Non Passenger Carrying Coaching Stock (NPCCS)|Non Passenger Carrying Coaching Stock (NPCCS)]] such as Full Brakes and carriages adapted for use as Post Office Sorting Vans (also known as Travelling Post Offices or TPOs) and General Utility Vans (GUVs). Other goods vans and brake vans are listed under [[Goods Wagons]]. ==GWR (and constituents) Designed Coaches==  {| class="wikitablesortable"!Number !! Type !! Built !! Designer Build Location !!
