Why are Chiltern's London services crap?

I have often looked hard for any sign of its former existence, but there is nothing left. Guy Gorton 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. |
