The LNER Carriage Group is part of the [[Severn Valley Railway Charitable Trust Ltd | SVR Charitable Trust]]. The group has volunteers in common with [[The LNER (SVR) Coach Fund]]; it was formed in 2010 at the time the Coach Fund transferred ownership of three carriages to the Charitable Trust. It maintains and restores LNER carriages owned by the Trust.
The Group has recently completed the upgrading of the interior of [[Carriages|Tourist Third Open (TTO) 43600]] in conjunction with a scheduled overhaul by [[Severn Valley Railway (Holdings) PLC | SVR(H)]]. £13k was raised by private sponsorship to improve the seating, tables and wall lamps, plus new mirrors, luggage racks and coathooks. Replica LNER pattern moquette was also provided by the Trust to cover the seats. TTO 52255 is to be similarly improved this year, and work has commenced on the seats, tables and lamp fittings.
