Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Railway line to Quainton Road Station 2. This single track railway line, which was once part of the Great Central Railway, the last main line twin track railway to be built, is now used by freight trains from Brentford in London carrying containerised household waste to the landfill site at Calvert, see 1048292, which is 6km behind the camera.
Here looking south-east, the railway goes under a road bridge for the C road between Waddesdon and Shipton Lee, and runs towards Quainton Road station 700m ahead. To the left of the bridge there was another bridge, now removed and filled in, under which ran the Aylesbury & Buckingham Railway, see http://www.railwayarchive.org.uk/map/getobjectmap.php?rnum=L2853&mapid=472215.jpg&mlsref=1060&cmn=Waddesdon&pn=1&mp=1&all=no, which then converged with the Great Central Railway on the other side of this bridge, see 1038952. |
