Trains at: Bletchley, WCML, 08/04/19

An excellent evening spent at the always amazing station of Blecthley on the West Coast Mainline and the Marston Vale Line where we see plenty of services from London Northwestern Railway, Southern, Virgin Trains and freight from Freightliner, DB Cargo UK, GBRF, Royal Mail and DRS

Bletchley was built in 1846 by the London and Birmingham Railway once the line was completed from London Euston to Denbigh Hall which was located roughly 1 mile north of Bletchley station. This was at first considered a major station due to the fact that Milton Kenyes hadn't been built let alone even thought of yet. Once Milton Keynes had been constructed the importance of Bletchley really fell away especially when the East - West route had been downgraded. This isn't to be confused with the new East - West rail link that is currently being constructed from Oxford to Cambridge. Milton Kenyes railway station was given intercity importance in 1982.

My next station is Ashford International.
