Default Aylesbury North (was Great Central 1948 - 1996)

It would be nice to see Chiltern Rail continue to invest in their lines, as
they have in the past, and create the oft spoken of "Aylesbury North" as
well as faster trains to London. Perhaps even go further north of
Aylesbury - a regular service to the Bucks Rail Centre would be nice, even
though it's unlikely to ever pay its way.


Aylesbury North station is looking increasingly likely; Chiltern have
been working on it for some time and Adrian Shooter (chairman of
Chiltern) alluded to plans for it on the same model as Warwick Parkway,
which Chiltern built themselves. A lot of new housing is going up close
to the railway north of Aylesbury, so the potential for a station here
(which would also act as a parkway station) is very good.
