They also run sets with the observation saloon as 8 coaches and when Tornado visited that ran on 9 I believe, 2 mk1s and 7 teaks.

They use diggers to load up at Bridgnorth and Kidderminster, dunno how that would be done in RW but in the MSTS version there was an animated digger at Kiddy so you never know.

Water, Bridgnorth, Bewdley and Kidderminster

There's an animated JCB model in game already, with a bit of messing around with the .bin file I think it would be possible to create a loading point from this

True. Which stations in rail works are shortest on the route?
I know the two halts are shorts but that's it?

Highley I think is the next shortest and then P2 at Bridgnorth, that is shorter than P1 - not forgetting the bay at Arley as well.

The SVR can easy run 11 carriage trains if they wanted... I am there a lot and have seen them run 10 a lot. The Venturer dining train (not the SVR limited dining train) often has 10 here is a vid of that very service at highly http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eVEugk72BO4.

Also hopefully both station water points at Kidderminster can be used and also the loco yard one at bridgnorth. They are the main 1s used. The JCB idea for coal is a great one. I loved that feature in the MSTS version.
