The following tables produced by the GWR show the number of staff employed at each 'Grade' (job title) by the GWR stations on the Severn Valley Branch and [[Wyre Forest Line]] in 1922. A table for Shrewsbury is included for completeness They give the total number of each 'Grade' (job title) and to give a comparison with a large, mainline station. The tables also show the number at each 'Class or Grading' (pay grade) where known, either 'S' (Special), or from '1' (highest) down to 'J' (Junior). Pay structure was also affected by whether the station was 'Rural' or 'Industrial'. A table for Shrewsbury is included for completeness and to give a comparison with a large, mainline station. The numbers of staff at larger stations such as Shrewsbury and Kidderminster appear to include (where applicable) those working in the goods yard, but not those working in the associated goods depot. They also include S&T staff such as signalmen, but exclude permanent way department staff and those allocated to local motive power depots such as footplate men and fitters etc.
