A Network Rail track installation train makes its way slowly back towards Bletchley after leaving its load of Long Welded Rail (LWR) a mile or so back towards Swanbourne. The train is topped and tailed by Freightliner Class 66 locomotives Nos. 66560 and 66420. Tracklaying for the new East West Railway is now making fast progress from Bletchley towards Winslow.
