I spoke to a gentlemen yesterday who said EWR will branch off roughly where the northampton spur was previously (going in the opposite direction). Is there any evidence to support that?

He also said a leaflet given to him kept referencing to Bedford as "Bedford Central station". Given the reason MK Central was given its name it gave way to some pondering over if Wixams would be given a "Bedford South" and another station north of Bedford being given a Bedford north name.
edited picture as spur was a bit too far north, he said north of where the iron bridge is. Which is where I've put the lines now.
I believe the line has to run within the zone that EWR has publicly consulted on, ie. the gap between Clapham and Bedford.
