The SVR archives were set up in 2009 and are held in an upstairs room at [[The Engine House]] in an upstairs room shared with the catering stores, set up in 2009.
The archive room holds a vast collection of information dating back to the earliest days of the SVR’s preservation. It includes every copy of SVR News, every timetable and promotional booklet, plus many old SVR posters and timetables and a large collection of and press cuttings from 1965 onwards.<ref>Express Points February 2019</ref>
The SVR Archive has an informal agreement with [[Kidderminster Railway Museum]] that any documents donated to either organisation relating to the SVR in the preservation era will go to Highley, while any relating to the railway pre-preservation, go to Kidderminster.

The Archive also holds a large collection of photos, mainly of the SVR in the preservation era.
{{As of|2022}} work is progressing on cataloguing these photos with the intention of making them more widely available. The images below link to a selection of pages of thumbnail images with descriptions to give a preview of what will be available when the work is complete.
Any enquiries about these or other items held at the Archive should be addressed to [mailto:archive@svrlive.com archive@svrlive.com]
