Last working from Akeman Street

            3-car Class 117 no. 420 first generation DMU between Akeman Street and Grendon Underwood Junction the last train on the line on Monday 31 May 1993. This was the Branch Line Society (BLS) “Thames and Chiltern Rambler II”.  In later years this line was used for the UKF fertiliser  traffic to the depot at Akeman Street (which is in the background) coming from Ince. It ran as a trip working from Bletchley on a Saturday morning. The railway bed is now used as a road to the Greatmoor Energy from Waste facility (near Grendon Underwood Junction) and which is now next to the HS2 route.
