Which railcar burnt out at Bridgnorth?
The article cites a photo of W7W burnt out in the sidings at Bridgnorth, following a fire on 10 August 1956. Various other sites state that W10W caught fire at Bridgnorth on 9 March 1956 (e.g. this site), but I can find no mention of W7W catching fire - the linked site shows a withdrawl date of Jan 1959, which seems optimistic if it suffered a "serious fire" in 1957. Which of the fire claims is correct? I do note that quite a number did manage to catch fire, so maybe the answer is both! --Danny252 (talk) 23:17, 19 June 2017 (UTC)

I've added a historical note for the halt, north of Worcester, as an unadvertised halt for munitions workers. The services shown are not SVRSevern Valley Railway services, but if anyone finds that SV branch services between Worcester and Bewdley stopped there it would be good to add it--Patrick Hearn (talk) 15:52, 7 November 2021 (UTC)
