The Carriage Shed, Severn Valley Railway

At a third of a mile in length, the shed was built to protect the railway's fleet of more than 60 historic coaches from the elements and to provide under cover cleaning and maintenance facilities. This magnificent building has no equals, either in the heritage world or on the 'real' railway. Looking towards Kidderminster. Open to the public during the Peep Behind the Scenes event of 15th July.
