The Silverlink Class 321 units passenger trains on the Northampton Line were later superseded the Class 350 emu's when London Midland Trains took over the franchise, and then again by West Midlands Trains.

Wolverton railway station historical note:
It was at Wolverton railway station in Buckinghamshire, on the 9th September 1845, that bare-knuckle fighter, Bendigo, stepped from a carriage of a London & Birmingham Railway train surrounded by a horde of his supporters.
His destination was the nearby town of Newport Pagnell where it was arranged that he would take part in an illegal fight with Ben Court.
At the last possible moment, for various reasons, the venue was switched to the village of Lillington Lovell, 4 miles north of Buckingham.
The match went ahead with Bendigo being heralded the winner after 96 gruelling rounds.
