@Historicallibrarian: Just to clarify that, although what 10mmsocket says is true (that there are no plans for East West Rail Company trains to stop at Islip), that does not mean that services to Islip will cease. EWRCo trains are to be "semi-fast" but that does not mean that the Chiltern Railway stopping service will cease. There is a similar case regarding the stops on the Bletchley–Bedford section.

I agree (and tried before but at least then it was cited back to the EWRCo website, though IMO it was only indicative). Please go ahead and delete it. 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 18:26, 28 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Bedford Town Area Constructional Impact Assessment
The document is really just a preliminary engineering assessment of what works might be needed. Maybe worth adding to the External Links but a bit wp:crystal right now, also far too detailed for this article (IMO anyway). 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 14:15, 30 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
Is it 100 mph throughout, or just on certain sections? I can't imagine that the junctions at Oxford and Bletchley would be laid for 100 mph. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 21:45, 26 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
And anyone who has ever ridden on the Bletchley to Bedford Marston Vale Line would find it hard to believe they'd exceed 60 mph on that track, so it's clear a lot of work will need to be done. 10mmsocket (talk) 22:20, 26 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Where did the info about rolling stock come from? Last I read, EWRCo had invited letters of interest for new designs? but in any case, surely it is WP:CRYSTAL vio to report anything before the start of services. (Surely nobody put the test trains in the infobox, did they?) 𝕁𝕄𝔽 (talk) 18:51, 29 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
There was news a couple of years ago about 10 Class 196s being leased from LNWR for this and the rolling stock of the 168s and 165s all being on the Oxford to Bicester section. Difficultly north (talk) Time, department skies 12:04, 31 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

Probably too early to ask this but when at least the Oxford to Bletchley section opens, should this be merged into here or moved to say "Oxford to Bletchley line"? Difficultly north (talk) Time, department skies 12:06, 31 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
