Winslow Rail Station (disused)

Image: © Andrew Bodman Taken: 24 Mar 2014

The disused railway station in Winslow on the Oxford to Cambridge Varsity Line; westbound platform visible. The last regular passenger trains ran until the end of 1967. The station building was demolished in 1993. East West Rail will reopen and dual track the line between Oxford and Bletchley by December 2017. The recent housing development precludes the rebuilding of the station in its original position. Instead a new station will be built to the north west of the line near to the junction between Buckingham Road and Great Horwood Road.
