Since privatisation of British Rail from 1993 several Train Operating Companies have run timetabled passenger trains to Kidderminster, carrying passengers for the Severn Valley Railway.

Chiltern Railways

Chiltern Railways too 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.

Central Trains

Central Trains was formed from part of the nationalised British Rail. It operated services from 2 March 1997 until 11 November 2007 from Birmingham New Street and Birmingham Snow Hill.

London Midland

On 11 November 2007, Central Trains' local and urban services around the West Midlands were merged with former Silverlink Country services to form London Midland. It should not be confused with the historic but similarly named London Midland Region of British Railways or the pre-Nationalisation London Midland & Scottish Railway.

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.
