Heritage Railways
Severn Valley Railway
The Severn Valley
Railway is a heritage railway in
Shropshire and Worcestershire, England.
The 16-mile (26 km) heritage line runs along the Severn Valley from
Bridgnorth to Kidderminster, crossing
the Shropshire/Worcestershire border, following the course of the River Severn for much of
its route. Train services are hauled predominantly by steam locomotives, plus
one diesel hauled train, making two round trips a day, on most days. Diesel
locomotives are also used for engineering trains, to replace failed steam
locomotives at short notice, and during periods of high fire risk.
The railway is the sixth-longest standard gauge heritage line in the United Kingdom. It hosts numerous special events throughout the year, including both steam and diesel galas. |
