Summary
[edit]DescriptionAylesbury, Trackbed of the former railway to Cheddington - geograph.org.uk - 900404.jpg |
English: Aylesbury: Trackbed of the former railway to Cheddington It's difficult to visualize now but this is the trackbed of the long-dismantled former London & North Western Railway's Cheddington to Aylesbury branch line. The railway was built as long ago as 1839, but was an early pre-Beeching casualty of closure, passenger services having been terminated in 1953 and goods in 1964. The railway ran dead straight from just outside Aylesbury to just outside Cheddington, and it ran here from the photographer's position towards the white car. The line here was double-tracked at the approach to Aylesbury High Street station, as evidenced in this old photograph http://disused-rlys.fotopic.net/p34732574.html
Stocklake is the road on the right. More houses must have been built along Stocklake after the old photograph was taken. |
