Sounds like a case of the 850 bus if you go from Twyford, or either the 800 (misses Twyford) or 850 from Reading.

Not a good morning in the Thames Valley. The unit on the Marlow branch has also broken down. Both have gone back to Reading.

Replacement unit came from Reading to pick up service with the 11:02 to Marlow. The Henley service resumed with the 10:45 from Twyford.
