Gerrards Cross railway station is a railway station in the town of Gerrards Cross in Buckinghamshire, England. It is on the Chiltern Main Line between and . History The station was built as part of the Great Western and Great Central Joint Railway and was opened on 2 April 1906 as Gerrards Cross for the Chalfonts. It is in a deep cutting that was dug for the line to maintain a very shallow maximum gradient, to allow for fast running with steam-hauled trains. The line opened after the Chalfont Viaduct was built further up the line to traverse the River Misbourne. The original station layout was four-track, with two through roads and two platform roads. The two through roads were disused from 1985 and were completely removed by October 1989. This enabled the Up platform to be extended out and built over what used to be the Up through and platform roads, with the original Up line slewed to the Down through road. There was a small goods yard north of the line. This has now been removed, but services from Marylebone that terminate at Gerrards Cross use the siding there. There were two signal boxes at Gerrards Cross station, one on the east side of the station and one on the west side. The east signal box was closed in 1923. The west signal box was renamed 'Gerrards Cross' and was located on the Down line and remained in use until 11 August 1990 when a total route modernisation was carried out by British Rail and signalling was passed to the new Marylebone Integrated Control Centre. The new line and station effectively created the present Gerrards Cross; the original settlement lay for the most part along the Oxford Road. The station was transferred from the Western Region of British Railways to the London Midland Region on 24 March 1974. The bronze 'Railway Navvy' sculpture behind the Up platform was created by Anthony Stones who was commissioned in 1992 by the Colne Valley Park Groundwork Trust. The band Genesis contributed £3,000 towards the cost of the sculpture in appreciation of their song 'Driving the Last Spike' on their album We Can't Dance. In October 2007 work began on installing ticket barriers; these became operational on Monday 10 March 2008. Between March and June 2021, the station was refurbished. The work included replacing the canopies, installing lighting across the entire station,
