 From Stanton St. John the line would stop on the outskirts of Oxford at Headington, terminating at a station to be built in the back garden of 12 High Street, St Clement's, near Magdalen Bridge.The proposal included a separate set of rails to be provided where the old and new routes ran together, to allow the existing Wotton Tramway to continue to operate independently if it saw fit, but given the Duke's involvement in the new scheme it is unlikely he intended to use this option.At the line would have been the shortest route between Oxford and Aylesbury, compared with via the GWR (which had absorbed the Wycombe Railway), and via the Aylesbury and Buckingham Railway and the LNWR.
