Interesting scheme. I'd always wondered what that funny little line
through Maidenhead was!


There's a long article on Wycombe station and the Maidenhead branch in the
current (Summer 2004) Great Western Railway Journal



The matter of the High Wycombe- Maidenhead branch has suddenly ( and
unexpectedly) moved up the agenda, with the decison to teminate
crosrail at Maidenhead. Needless to say the Property Board were
selling ( giving away) the trackbed only 3 months ago, so much for
joined up government.
