May 1980

A Marylebone-bound class 115 DMU calls at Gerrards Cross in May 1980. The line was opened in 1906, a joint venture built by the Great Western & Great Central Railways. The line through here was rebuilt towards the end of the 1980s and became double track, with the platform extended over the two right-hand lines. Kevin Lane.

summer 1986

A class 115 set on a Marylebone to High Wycombe service has just stopped at Gerrards Cross in summer 1986. We can see the centre roads looking very unused. These were removed in 1989 which allowed the Up platform to be extended outwards over the nearest two tracks, leaving a conventional two track station in place. Murray Liston.

summer 1986

A class 115 set approaches Gerrards Cross in 1986. Taken from Packhorse Road, everything from here to the Marsham Lane bridge in the distance was buried to create land for a Tesco store with the line contained in a tunnel under the site. Things didn’t go to plan however with the tunnel collapsing during construction in 2005 and a revised design eventually used which delayed the whole project by about 5 years. At the time this photo was taken the centre roads were still in place here but had not been used for a while, they were removed in 1989. Murray Liston.
