Changes

This is an independent group based on the Severn Valley Railway. It was formed in early 1999 by a number of younger members, with the objective of raising funds to contribute towards the restoration of Ex-[[GWR 4930 Hagley Hall]]<ref>SVR News 137</ref>. The locomotive is owned by [[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) plcPLC]].

From 2018 the Friends are fully integrated into the [[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd|SVR Charitable Trust]] so they can maximise income through Gift Aid. <ref>[https://www.svrtrust.org.uk/index.php?page=Hagley%20Hall SVR Charitable Trust webpage] (Retrieved 7 June 2017)</ref>  == See also ==[[List of preservation groups]]<br>[[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd]]<br>[[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC]]
