Since privatisation of British Rail from 1993 several Train Operating Companies have run timetabled passenger trains to [[Kidderminstermainline station]], carrying passengers for the Severn Valley Railway.
==Chiltern Railways==
Chiltern Railways was formed from part of the nationalised British Rail. It has operated services since 21 July 1996 and operates from London Marylebone to Birmingham Snow Hill and Kidderminster.
 
In [[Severn Valley Railway Timeline 2010-2019#2014|September 2014]] Chiltern operated a return ‘Silver King’ charter from London Marylebone to Bridgnorth using locomotove 67010, one of its Mk III coaching sets and Driving Van Trailer 82301.
==West Midlands Railway==
West Midlands Trains took over the franchise from London Midland on 10 December 2017 and operates as West Midlands Railway. It should not be confused with the historic but similarly named [[West Midland Railway]].
 
==Cross Country==
Very few CrossCountry services are timetabled to use the route, to ensure drivers retain route knowledge. During engineering works the line is a diversionary route. None of these trains call at any of the stations along the line, although some diversionary trains were in previous years booked to call at Kidderminster.
