[[File: Coffee_Pot_and_KRM_20120520.JPG |thumb|300px|right|The Railway Museum building can be seen behind visiting loco ‘The Coffee Pot’]]Although it works closely with the SVR, Kidderminster Railway Museum is run by an independent organisation formed by a group of SVR members in 1989. The Museum, which opened the following year, is housed in the 1878 constructed two-storey former GWR grain and wool warehouse adjoining [[Kidderminster | Kidderminster station]].
The museum has on display an extensive collection of smaller historical railway items such as signalling equipment. It also has a small collection of rolling stock outside in the vicinity of the relocated [[Wrangaton Signal Box]]. The upper floor of the building houses an extensive collection of railway photographs and books.
