67003 with a short freight train for Bicester MOD Depot
Class 67 No. 67003 negotiates the new Gavray Junction, western end of the Bicester Chord line. As the line from Oxford to Bicester was still being rebuilt, freight trains for Bicester MOD Depot were routed via Aylesbury, Claydon Junction (where the trains reversed) and Bicester Town. At this time, Gavray Junction was still under construction, the track only recently having been laid, so movements off the old LNWR line from Bletchley and Claydon had to be taken at a very slow speed. As soon as the Bicester Chord was operational, these trains reverted to the route via Oxford. Subsequently the track between here and Bletchley was lifted to allow this section to be rebuilt to double track mainline standard for East West Railway which will run trains from Milton Keynes to Oxford and to London via Aylesbury.

A very snowy scene of The Garth (know locally as 'Garth Park'). This old house is the home of Bicester Town Council. The park is of a good size featuring a playground, pond, large lawned areas, many varieties of trees and plants, and even a small ancient graveyard!
