View SE, towards Amersham and London, also Princes Risborough: ex-Metropolitan & GC Joint main line from London (Marylebone, formerly also Baker Street), to Leicester, Nottingham and Sheffield by the ex-GCR 'London Extension (closed 5/9/66). The Metropolitan (LPTB from 1933) from Baker Street ran through to Verney Junction until 1936, but from 6/61 was cut back to Amersham. The ex-GW & GC Joint branch from Princes Risborough also remains. Here in 1991 this former Aylesbury ('Joint', later 'Town') station is being thoroughly refurbished: subsequently (12/08) trains will run on to the new Aylesbury Vale Parkway station on the residual line to Quainton Road. 'First Generation' DMUs dominate the services in 1991.
