Bicester North station
Image: © Peter Whatley Taken: 21 Feb 1981
Known simply as Bicester at the time this photo was taken, when the former GC/GW line to points north was tolerated rather than promoted with a 2-hourly service between Banbury and Princes Risborough. The loop at Bicester was not needed for normal traffic purposes, making it simple to timetable our special train which is on the right. The four-car service train on the right is of the standard pattern used from London Marylebone for all services in the 1960s to 1980s.
