Wendover Station
Wendover station was opened by the Metropolitan Railway in 1892 and, although later on the Great Central Railway's main line north to Sheffield, it continued to be part of the Metropolitan Line until 1961, when London Transport took the decision to pull out of running services beyond Amersham rather than electrifying to Aylesbury. Today it is served by Chiltern Railways trains from Marylebone. To the left is the much newer A413 Wendover by-pass opened in 1998.
