Rag Express added 14.4.19
'''April 2019'''
:On 4 April the SVR staged a special event to celebrate the opening of the [[Bridgnorth#Bridgnorth Development Project|new refreshment room at Bridgnorth]], attended by around 650 shareholders who had invested in the [[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC#Share_offers|2017 share offer]]. The SVR ran a number of special trains between Kidderminster and Bridgnorth for the event.
:On 14 April [[BR Class 33 33108]] hauled the ''Rag Express''. The diesel groups at the [[Diesel Depot]] sourced a large supply of rags, used by ex-[[SVR Apprentices]] on no-frills tasks. The youngsters sorted the load and arranged a special train with [[GWR 17410 'Toad' 20T Goods Brake Van]] and one of the Siphons to send some rags up the line, so other groups could benefit. They also made a traditional headboard using skills from their time in school.
