The first volunteers started to rebuild the new Severn Valley Railway back in 1965, newly privately owned as a preserved steam railway. 

Since then, as the spiritual home of the now world-famous heritage steam railway, we continue to welcome new recruits to our friendly station - the best on the Severn Valley Railway in our opinion (no bias, of course..).

No trains - but plenty of action.

We are making the most of the absence of trains. Lots of restoration, improvement, rebuilding and maintenance work is going on all over the station. Plenty of dry and wet weather work available for anyone who is willing to donate time and effort.

Trains at Bridgnorth in 2010:

We currently have no trains from Bridgnorth, until the completion of reinstallation works at Hampton Loade. The temporary timetable for the shortened service of Kidderminster to Highley is at www.svr.co.uk/timetable.

The reinstallation work needed at Hampton Loade was originally envisaged to have been complete by the February half term 2010. However after analysis it will now take until the first week in March to reach completion.

This will mean that a truncated service between Kidderminster and Highley will now operate at weekends, and over the February half term. 

The timetable of the Hampton Loade relay is:                              Jan 4th – Jan 10th - Remove track sections                               Jan 11th – Feb 7th - Civils work to remove ballast layer, PWay to prefabricate new track and points                                                 Feb 8th – Feb 21st – Track relayed                                          Feb 22nd – end - S&T work
