Talk:Aylesbury railway station

Rename Aylesbury Town?
At London, they now call this station Aylesbury Town (to distinguish from P'way). Should this be included? Btline (talk) 21:13, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
 * Only if that's the name shown on station signs and timetables --Redrose64 (talk) 18:34, 30 July 2009 (UTC)
 * Last time I travelled by train from Aylesbury it was still just Aylesbury. And that was after Parkway opened. --  role player 18:59, 30 July 2009 (UTC)

Ownership
The ownership of Aylesbury station changed several times prior to Nationalisation. I want to fill in two fields in the infobox, viz. pregroup and postgroup. The problem is that the station was doubly joint. Prior to Grouping, it was 50% GW & GC Jt, 50% Met & GC Jt, and after Grouping, the same two Joint Committees owned the station. How was it officially described? It's not mentioned in the Railways Act 1921, whilst the Transport Act 1947 has no separate undertaking, but lists "The Great Western and Great Central Railways Joint Committee" and "The Metropolitan and Great Central Joint Committee" in Schedule 3, which also states "any other body whose members consist wholly of, or of representatives of, two or more of the above mentioned bodies", which covers Aylesbury. --Redrose64 (talk) 15:17, 21 September 2009 (UTC)

First mention of a locomotive
A recent addition reads "The first mention of a locomotive at Aylesbury was of the broad-gauge loco Giraffe in 1863, a member of the Sun class." Where was this mentioned? When in 1863 did it occur? What was the occasion? Was it significant, or just an entry in a trainspotter's log book? We need to satisfy WP:V here, as well as WP:NOR.

Why is the engine shed described twice, one of these being in a subsection "Motive Power Depot"? -- Red rose64 (talk) 10:50, 31 October 2016 (UTC)

Connection to East West Rail cancelled?
I read somewhere (but can't find it again, maybe it was just a forum post?) that the proposed connection to EWR for onward services to Winslow, Bletchley and MKC has been cancelled due to cost overrun in the whole project. Or was it just the dual tracking aspect? There is nothing about it here (but then again there is nothing here about planned future services anyway) or at East West Rail. Can anyone clarify? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 16:46, 24 October 2020 (UTC)
 * I didn't dream it but it was only a rumour in the Bucks Herald. . Today, TransportXtra has picked it up. . Nothing citeable, of course, but maybe smoke without fire? --John Maynard Friedman (talk) 19:35, 3 November 2020 (UTC)
