The Great Western (SVR) Association is dedicated to the preservation and restoration of items of historic rolling stock, particularly carriages, from the Great Western Railway.

Based at Bewdley on the Severn Valley Railway, our aim is to create two operational sets of appropriate Great Western passenger Rolling Stock to recreate the authentic atmosphere of the 30s and 40s on the Severn Valley line.
