Summary
[edit]| Description |
English: Railway line to Calvert Landfill Site 1. This single track railway line, which was once part of the Great Central Railway, the last main line twin track railway to be built, see 1048292, is now used by freight trains from Brentford in London carrying containerised household waste to the landfill site at Calvert, which is 6.5 km in the direction of the camera.
At this point, the Aylesbury & Buckingham Railway, see 963232, once branched off to the right from the Great Central Railway and ran to Verney Junction 9km to the north. The line went under a separate bridge to the right of the one in the photograph, see historic photograph http://www.railwayarchive.org.uk/map/getobjectmap.php?rnum=L1804&mapid=472215.jpg&mlsref=1060&cmn=Waddesdon&pn=1&mp=1&all=no, but the bridge has since been removed and filled in. The existing bridge is for the C road between Waddesdon and Shipton Lee. The next image in this sequence is 1054544. |
