Things are gathering a pace. I haven't been down there in since it closed. Its also worth going east because I believe they have cleared the vegetation off the route to bletchley as well.

Not a particular fan of the blue tiles but at least its a much better provision than what is there today. I thought I read somewhere that this was little bit west of site currently used? Also if it is going to be electrified 4 years after this I wonder if they are going to do any preparatory...

Interestingly more news on Bicester Town Station http://www.buckinghamtoday.co.uk/news/local/new-designs-for-bicester-town-station-unveiled-1-5832114 Images seem pixelated tho.

Lots of work in Bicester currently and looks like a bridge will be put in at London Road. http://www.bicesteradvertiser.net/news/10960288.County_is_given___11m_to_sort_out_roads/?ref=var_0

Good shot... Saw it going through bicester town http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ixV2QqdT2Wk&feature=youtu.be (apologies for the bad filming, and not so great choice of location but thought as BIT is due to be closed on 14/2/2014)

I would have thought we were right in nesting season now, but I am no Birdwatcher :D. Prep work as I thought.. thanks all...

I went past yesterday and they have cleared all the lineside vegetation between the two lines where the new curve is to go in. Does this mean all the legal hurdles are resolved or is this just prep work? Nice to see something happening finally.

Coombe Cellars between Shaldon and Newton Abbott. Gives a great view of a few miles of line from across the estuary.

Isn't there some risk of this for the GWSR? I thought I read the route was mentioned in some of the long term documents of NR.

But its going to be electrified... there are a few of these stored in field in victoria and I believe they are 5'3" http://www.theage.com.au/national/overcrowding-but-trains-taken-out-of-system-20080904-49xr.html :D
