		You will see in the report that this particular proposal is not fleshed out in detail because clearly the complexity of putting together a fund of this kind was well beyond the capacity of all of us who were thinking about it.
		Ambassador Quainton was a career foreign service officer and basically was in charge of the management, so to speak, of the State Department.
		And one of our concerns is that there are parts of this world, including the Middle East, where we do not have a sufficient supply of people who understand the total cultures and languages of those areas, and that is an emphasis that we need to make.

	The Quaintonian
		The Quaintonian was a regular charter by the Quainton Railway Society from 1971 to 1987.
		In 1987 arrangements were made for people to but a Network ticket that would enable them to travel right through to Quainton Road.
		Sometimes it was very well patronised (on one occasion Aylesbury had to strengthen it to eight cars to cope) but mostly it was lightly loaded.

	Underground History - Quaiton Road to Verney Juction
		The stretch of line between Quainton Road and Verney Juction effectively formed the continuation of the line that was built between Aylesbury and Claydon between 1861 and 1868 by the Aylesbury and Buckinghamshire Railway company.
		The Verney Junction branch from the mainline occurs just west of Quainton Road and although the track was lifted 50 years ago, the branch can clearly be observed from a bridge just down the road from Quainton Road.
		The branch from here to Quainton Road would have run in parallel with the original twin track and would have had a platform of its own.
