The line was built in 1846 by the Bedford Railway but subsequently taken over by the London & North Western Railway. Looking here from Fenny Stratford station the railway passes under Watling Street at Stag Bridge and the fact that the track was once doubled is evident from the width of the bridge. Just beyond the bridge is a junction that enables access to the Newton Longville landfill site a short distance down the now disused line to Bicester.
