It arrives empty, presumably from Marylebone or Wembley, at the down

on this service after bringing in a peak train to Marylebone, so they have
up-to-date route knowledge.


Runs empty from Wembley LMD to South Ruislip as 5V35, forms 2V35 to
Paddington, 2M30 back to West Ruislip, then 5H43 back to Marylebone,
though that's only part of the unit's diagram for the day.

The trains in question are only worked by Aylesbury drivers, and I
believe they need a Guard as well.

The May 2017 issue of Modern Railways (Page 58) says that
Chiltern's return service from Paddington in future "will instead
run non-stop to High Wycombe."
