Finally, the sun had managed to break through the blanket of grey cloud that had dominated the day just as I was leaving to get back to Bicester! I rode my bike the short distance to the new Oxford Parkway station in order to catch my return train from there. Whilst waiting, 168005 arrived with the 12.06 Marylebone to Oxford. This station has proved to be a great success, as can be seen in this image, passenger numbers are healthy so the investment in it seems to have been well spent!
