Chinnor and Princes Risborough Railway - Present Day and Future

Present Day and Future

An extension into Princes Risborough mainline railway station is proposed and the railway is in discussions with Network Rail, with a view to running into Princes Risborough station. This will allow passengers to connect from Chiltern Railways services on the Chiltern Main Line.

Also there is hope that the C&PRR could but will one day extend their heritage line services towards Aston Rowant terminating near the A40, As extending beyond the A40, towards Watlington, will be completely difficult as the M40 motorway has blocked the route of the old line.

Famous quotes containing the words present, day and/or future:

    yet when all is said
    It was the dream itself enchanted me:
    Character isolated by a deed
    To engross the present and dominate memory.
    William Butler Yeats (1865–1939)

    Draw up the dew. Swell with pacific violence.
    Take shape in silence. Grow as the clouds grew.
    Beautiful brood the cornlands, and you are heavy;
    Leafy the boughs—they also hide big fruit.
    —Cecil Day Lewis (1904–1972)

    He who asks fortune-tellers the future unwittingly forfeits an inner intimation of coming events that is a thousand times more exact than anything they may say. He is impelled by inertia, rather than curiosity, and nothing is more unlike the submissive apathy with which he hears his fate revealed than the alert dexterity with which the man of courage lays hands on the future.
    Walter Benjamin (1892–1940)
