The journey starts at Chinnor station and the train sets off for the seven-mile round trip by passing under Station Road, then rising gently through the outskirts of Chinnor village to Keens Lane. This is known locally as Donkey Lane because of the donkeys who in the 1930s, used to bring the beech chair legs down from the hills where they had been made for onward transportation to High Wycombe.
Views now open up on both sides of the line.
The line now descends to Wainhill Crossing and the restored Halt which is no longer open to passengers. The original crossing keeper's cottage, now privately owned, is on the right. This crossing is manned when passenger trains are running, and the train will slow down or even stop unless a green flag is being shown by the gateman After crossing the roadway, a stud farm can be seen immediately to the right, and to the left, just after some poplar trees, is a small pond where a Roman villa once stood. The line continues down through cutting to Bledlow Cricket Club where matches can be seen most Sunday afternoons. After crossing West Lane Bridge there are watercress beds to the right just before Perry Lane Bridge.
