Choose your seats, sit back, relax and enjoy the autumn panorama alongside the Chiltern Hills as the lovely views open out with the Vale of Aylesbury stretching into the distance. As the scenery gently unfolds past your window you may also spot some of our local wildlife and perhaps the Red Kites whirling overhead! For further information please see our Journey Guide.
