Residents of Wolvercote can see Chiltern Railways trains approaching Oxford from the north on a daily basis, but not on this line. The trains from Marylebone normally travel via Bicester, and join the Banbury line at Oxford North Junction. On 22 March 2020, extensive engineering work closed the Chiltern line, and Birmingham to London trains travelled via Banbury to Oxford. Having just passed the junction with the Cotswold Line (just out of sight around the corner), 168107 passes Wolvercote with the 1H29 12:13 Birmingham Moor Street to Oxford service. |
