The original issue had been reported between Shifnal and Cosford and had left services either running at a reduced speed or being replaced by rail replacement bus services.
The rail provider did say that replacement bus services would still be available until congestion cleared.
A spokesman for West Midlands Railway said: "The line has been cleared between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton.
"The issue was due to a fault with the signalling system between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton.
"Rail replacement buses are still available until congestion clears."
West Midlands Railway have also advised anyone wishing to seek a delay repayment to go to the West Midlands Railway website.
