this still one of their plans

They could at least extend a service to Fairford Leys, surely that'd
cost about £1mll+ though

Is that the name of the flood plain development?

There's work that looks a bit like platform lengthening at Gerrards
Cross at the moment. Started early, or different work?

I think you will find that they are building a Tesco store over the
tracks.

As a former GX resident I agree totally.

At Gerrards Cross that will be the Up platform. When the station was
remodelled in the 1980s a new Up platform was built on the formation
of the old Up through line. The old Up platform was 8 car's length
and more, and was often used by 2 x 4-car 115 sets. Then BR moved
some Driving Trailer Composites from the Lake District area (105s?)
and made up 2-car sets with a 115 Driving Motor Standard, and that was
the end of 8 car trains, even in rush hour. So the new platform, with
the usual short-sighted vision of BR was made just long enough for the
6 car sets.
Another poster has referred to the Tesco development which has been
on-going for several months now. For those who have not spotted this
development, and I have seen not a mention of it in MR,

Why dont you submit the pics with a couple of hundred words of an
article to MR on spec? Dont suppose they pay much but it'll be better
than a poke in the eye etc.
