One of the low driving position Paramount 3200s with deep screen (from the 3500) about to leave
Sir William Borlase's Grammar School in Marlow on a summer trip to Whipsnade Zoo. One of Motts
Skyliners is waiting behind to convey another party to London. B91SPR is on a Volvo B10M chassis.

Completing the trio of Whipsnade bound coaches is E533PRU, new to Chiltern Queens and similar to B91SPR, and a Caetano bodied
Volvo B10M behind.

Chiltern Queen's bus fleet has always been of interest and long worn this red and cream livery
to distinguish it from the coach fleet. It has also been a tradition to use ex City of Oxford stock.
Leyland Tiger/Duple Dominant EBW107Y joined many ex Oxford buses in the Chiltern Queens newly named bus fleet.
It is seen here very close to the M40 at Wycombe on a Henley College afternoon contract.

Seen in Henley on the town service originally
acquired under contract from Oxfordshire, which had previously been operated by Beeline,
the routes had become a Chiltern Queens commercial proposition. This Alexander bodied Mercedes, in Chiltern
Buses colours is one of the London MA class, acquired from nearby Wycombe Bus (then a subsidiary
of City of Oxford and the Go-Ahead group). Identical vehicles of Wycombe Bus linked the towns,
via Marlow on evening and Sunday workings. This one's age is disguised by a recently acquired
Northern Ireland registration.

A Plaxton Supreme, 2969HJ, thought to be on a Tiger chassis, is a recent acquisition for the Chiltern
Buses fleet and is a regular performer on services linked to Henley College. It is seen passing
through Marlow.
