Behind the scenes with the Carriage & Wagon Team on the Severn Valley Railway

When the Severn Valley Railway reopens, you'll be seated comfortably in one of our compartments or at one of our socially-distanced tables, but have you thought about how these vintage carriages are maintained?
Like all of the SVR's rolling stock, each carriage needs TLC from our team of industry experts to ensure that you can sit in comfort and style whilst you're with us.
Lesley Carr goes behind the scenes with Nigel, Alan and Jake to see how they maintain and repair our unrivalled fleet of carriage stock.
See how the team lift up the seven decade old, 31 tonne GWR 829 Full Third to ensure its fit for service, discover what happens behind the scenes in Carriage and Wagon at Kidderminster to maintain bogies, axels and compartment heating and much, much more.
This is another treat in a place you'll rarely get to discover. It's unlikely you'll ever get to see in our Carriage and Wagon department, so join us virtually as we open our doors and go behind the scenes.
