Verney Junction was a railway station at a junction serving four directions between 1868 and 1968 and from where excursions as far as Ramsgate could be booked. Situated fifty miles from Baker Street, the station is one of London's disused Underground stations and, although it never carried heavy traffic, it was important in the expansion of the Metropolitan Railway into what became Metro-land.

Caption
| - Station site in 2005, stationmaster's house to the right. As of April 2007 the view was much the same – rails are intact but low weeds are growing on much of the line between Bicester and Bletchley.
