Locomotive Works
The main locomotive works for the SVR are located at Bridgnorth. They are not normally open to the public because of health and safety regulations but conducted tours and open days are arranged from time to time. Major features of the locomotive works include the Boiler Shop, the machine shop equipped with a Noble and Lunn wheel lathe and ex-LT lifting jacks along with other equipment in the general fitting area.
Installation of a locomotive wheel drop commenced and was completed during 2010.
