Marston Vale services between Bletchley and Bedford do not normally operate on Sundays but on 24th July 2022 the Bedford River Festival justified a 2-hourly shuttle service along the line. 230003 calls at the intermediate station at Ridgmont heading for Bedford. The low building in the background is the Marston Vale signalling centre. This replaced all the mechanical boxes on the line and operates 24/7 as some freight services operate over this route during the night.
