In passing, Marshall also notes that the Bill of Parliament to enact the SURCC's plans "was advertised in the local press in Shrewsbury and Worcester during November 1846", which was earlier than this article. However neither Marshall nor Vanns states what the SURCC planned on calling their railway, therefore "The earliest known reference to the Severn Valley Railway in a newspaper" may still be correct.--[[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 16:04, 22 October 2019 (UTC)
:Further reading of Marshall appears to confirm that this related to the SURCC, particularly the 1852 newspaper comment (at which time the 'new' Severn Valley Railway Company had been formed but not yet incorporated) referring to bills for advertising five years before not being paid. I have updated the article accordingly.--[[User:Robin|Robin]] ([[User talk:Robin|talk]]) 21:40, 26 October 2019 (UTC)
