A short length of track just outside [[Kidderminster]] terminus allows the through running of trains between the SVR and Network Rail.
The connection was upgraded by the SVR in August 2012, to coincide with a Network Rail upgrade of signalling on the adjacent main line. Signalling of movements through the crossing is now controlled by the West Midlands Signalling Centre (WMSC) at Saltley in conjunction with the SVR's [[Kidderminster signal box]]. A [http://forum.svrasvr-online.org.uk/viewtopic.php?t=2529&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=0 discussion thread] on the SVR-Online Forum included many pictures of the work being carried out. The alterations now allow both ingress and egress of passenger carrying trains to the SVR.
The upgrade work included the first ever installation of a colour light signal on the SVR. It is jointly operated by the SVR signal box and by WMSC, and controls movements onto Network Rail or into the [[Carriage Repair Works|carriage workshop]] sidings.
