Glad to hear that! I have often looked hard for any sign of its
former existence, but there is nothing left.

Blind Lane signal box is, appropriately enough, now at Rothley, on the
preserved GCR section.
According to Network Rail's Draft West Midlands and Chilterns Route
Study there are plans to run Chiltern Trains from Old Common to the
West Midlands by way of a four track section from Northolt Junction.
Actually the study says from Denham. But Northolt to West Ruislip is
already multi track. So it would be wise to have four Network Rail
tracks from Northolt.
IMHO it would make sense for an OOC to Snow Hill service to call at
West Ruislip, High Wycombe, Princes Risborough and station to Snow
Hill.
Meanwhile services from Marylebone on the old GCGW could run all
stations to Aylesbury with some trains turning back at Gerard Cross
and Prices Risborough. The interchanges at Sudbury Hill (with the
Piccadilly Line) and West Ruislip (with the Central Line) should be
greatly improved.
