  • The Evolution of Train Services on the Met and Gc Line
    THE EVOLUTION OF TRAIN SERVICES ON THE MET AND GC LINE by Eric Stuart (Readers may find reference to the Four-Tracking article in the July 2018 issue of Underground News helpful) After the Great Central (GC) arrived at Quainton Road and the service south thereof became established, both the GC and the Metropolitan Railway (Met.) provided services. However, the personalities at the heads of the two companies did not enjoy the best of relationships. Matters came to a head when a GC train crashed when failing to reduce speed over the (then) reverse curve into Aylesbury station in 1904. About that time, both the leaders retired and a period of better relations between the companies began. On 2 April 1906, the Metropolitan & Great Central Joint Railway (MGCJR) was created. This latter took over the lines of the Metropolitan Railway north and west of Harrow South Junction, with the exception of the branch to Uxbridge. These included the main line between Harrow-on-the-Hill and Verney Junction and the branch from Chalfont & Latimer to Chesham. The MGCJR was created under the terms of the Metropolitan & Great Central Railway Act, which received Royal Assent on 4 August 1905. At the same time, the Great Central and Great Western Joint Railway was formed, covering the lines south of Aylesbury via Princes Risborough to Northolt Junction. This was the result of a new line that aided the GC by partly avoiding congestion on the Met. and also giving the Great Western a shorter route to Birmingham1. One curiosity was that a Joint Committee was set up to manage a new Aylesbury station, jointly owned by two joint railways! Some points on terminology: The new line was commonly called just ‘The Joint Line’ and, even in later LT days, some staff still belonged to a particular class that made them feel superior to others2.

  • Steeple Claydon and Verney Junction EWR Phase 2 Newsletter
    East West Rail Phase Two Project Newsletter Steeple Claydon & Verney Junction, Autumn 2020 Welcome! Enabling works underway Welcome to the Autumn issue of the East West Rail Alliance project newsletter. I wanted to start by thanking everyone who took the time to read and share the last issue of the newsletter. We have seen an increase in the readership of the newsletter and have received feedback on the format with the level of information in the local update sections we introduced in issue two being positive. As you’ll read below, perhaps the most obvious progress we have made since the last newsletter can be seen in Bletchley, where our team has dismantled sections of the Bletchley Flyover ready for it to be rebuilt to modern standards. The dismantling has demanded a meticulous amount of Since the last issue of our newsletter, the Alliance has planning from our team, Network Rail operations, the been preparing many areas across the project footprint for train operating companies, local authorities and our main construction activities to begin. Highways environment agencies and I’m delighted to report all the improvements have been made, with roads widened, lifts were safely completed in line with our programme. passing bays on narrow roads put in place, and access We are now in the process of removing the final points for our site compounds installed. In addition, we elements of the structure that need to be removed have been constructing ‘haul roads’, which will enable before we can start the rebuild process in construction traffic to travel between certain areas of the November/later this year.

  • Verney Junction — Bletchley Branch of the L.N.W.R
    Brackley Central Station just after closure, looking south through the arch shown 67 years earlier on page 164. The station building on the right is still (2008) extant, but everything else has been swept away. The footbridge crosses the north-bound 'down' line to give access to the stairs leading down to the single 'island' platform, on each end of which stand water tanks. At the town's south end Brackley also had a station on the Banbury — Verney Junction — Bletchley branch of the L.N.W.R. The two stations were known, logically enough, respectively as the Top Station and the Bottom Station. The new line crossed over the branch line about a mile further on. Finmere station followed (about a mile from that village, but later to do good business with Stowe School). Calvert Station was reached shortly after the new line crossed the Oxford — Verney Junction — Bletchley branch line of the L.N.W.R., and about five miles further on the junction was made at Quainton Road. Not one of the railway lines mentioned now exists, except for the West Coast main line at Rugby. For reasons of economy, the G.C.'s smaller stations, including all the ones mentioned, were constructed with a single 'island' platform instead of the traditional two platform affairs which have one for each track. At an 'island' station the two tracks diverged, with a single platform lying between them. This gave problems of access, so that a staircase usually led down to platform level from a bridge above the line (as, for example, at Rugby and Brackley) although at Woodford there was a subway with steps leading up.

    The Vale of Aylesbury Plan Brill Fact Pack April 2011 Contents Section Page 1 Introduction page 2 2 Location and Setting page 5 3 Story of Place page 7 4 Fact File page 9 5 Issues Facing the Parish page 33 6 Parish Constraints page 35 7 Annex page 38 1. Introduction Purpose of the document This Fact Pack document was initially produced in 2010 to help inform the town/parish council about the characteristics of their parish for the ‘community view’ consultation. This consultation was undertaken early on in the preparation of the Vale of Aylesbury Plan as part of a bottom up approach embracing localism and aiming to get local communities more involved in the planning process. The town/parish council were asked to consult with their community on the following: The level of future housing and/or employment development up to 2031, including specific types of homes, employment and other development The location, sizes and phasing of development The types of infrastructure (social, community, physical) needed to enable development, including where it should be located Any other issues relating to planning and development This Fact Pack document has also been used to support neighbourhood planning by providing evidence for the context of the neighbourhood plan, including information on housing, employment, infrastructure and the environment. This Fact Pack document has also been used to support the Vale of Aylesbury Plan Settlement Hierarchy Assessment. This forms part of the evidence that classifies settlements into different categories, where different levels of growth are apportioned to over the next 20 years.

My reasons for doing so are to re-emphasise the importance of the east-west rail project to regional and national infrastructure, and to urge my hon. Friend the Minister and his colleagues at the Department for Transport to do all they can to deliver the project as soon as possible in the light of the Hendy review. Let me first explain the scope of east-west rail. This is not a new line, but a project to restore the old varsity line between Oxford and Cambridge, via Bicester, Milton Keynes and Bedford, with a spur to Aylesbury. Much of the line already exists. Part of it is used as a freight line, part of it already has local services running on it and large parts of the old infrastructure are still in place, if mothballed. The line was not closed by Beeching, but declined in the 1970s, when it became faster to travel between Oxford and Cambridge by going through London, rather than taking a slow, diesel multiple unit winding its way through such wonderfully named places as Swanbourne, Verney Junction, Claydon, Launton and Wendlebury Halt.

    ARCHAEOLOGICAL NOTES FROM THE BUCKINGHAMSHIRE COUNTY MUSEUM These notes include all new archaeological sites and finds brought to the attention of the Buckinghamshire County Museum during 1973. Short notes on excavations conducted in the Milton Keynes area are included by courtesy of the two Field Archaeologists of the Milton Keynes Development Corporation. The assistance of a number of other informants is gratefully acknowledged. Other sites and finds were discovered by museum staff. Finds with accession numbers (bracketed) have been presented to the Museum. A few remain to be accessioned. Others have been retained by the finder, or in the case of Milton Keynes excavations are housed at Bradwell Abbey Field Centre. Where eight-figure grid references are given, these normally refer to the centre of a site. Further details of many sites are to be found on County Antiquities Survey record cards at the Buckinghamshire County Museum.

This site is one of several hundred designed landscapes county‐wide identified by Bucks County Council (BCC) in 1998 (including Milton Keynes District) as potentially retaining evidence of historic interest, as part of the Historic Parks and Gardens Register Review project carried out for English Heritage (now Historic England) (BCC Report No. 508). The list is not conclusive and further parks and gardens may be identified as research continues or further information comes to light. Content BGT has taken the Register Review list as a sound basis from which to select sites for appraisal as part of its Research and Recording Project for designed landscapes in the historic county of Bucks (pre‐1974 boundaries). For each site a dossier is prepared by volunteers trained on behalf of BGT by experts in appraising designed landscapes who have worked extensively for English Heritage (now Historic England) on its Register Upgrade Project. Each dossier includes the following for the site: A site boundary mapped on the current Ordnance Survey to indicate the extent of the main part of the surviving designed landscape, also a current aerial photograph.
