The recently re-laid track and fresh ballast at Jarvis Lane crossing to the west of Bicester looking towards Bletchley. The raised barrier in the distance is where the line crosses the Eastern Perimeter Road, this is where the new track stops. If the Network Rail grand plan comes to fruition then, in a few years, this view will be transformed into a fast 100mph, double track express main line linking Oxford to Bedford.....we'll see!
