 The Alexander ALX400 bodied DAF DB250 doubledeckers of Arriva the Shires had been stalwarts of the fleet for nearly five years when thsi picture of former DLA301 (Y501UGC) was photographed in Castle Street, High Wycombe, bound for Bourne End in September 2017.

 Seen later that month in Castle Street, High Wycombe, is 6283 (Y483UGC)m former DLA283. It has lost its tree defender for the front nearside upper deck windows, but the roof seems to have faired well in the leafy Chilterns. The buses are regulars on route 48 across the hills to Great Missenden and must encounter lots of foliage.

 As can be seen in this Castle Street view that month former DLA302 (Y502UGC) retained its London white roof. Unfortunately 6302 had sustained mechanical failure on the morning school run to Great Misseneden, but was sorted out by the mechanic attending with the Ford Transit pickup and was abke to resume the service.

 A nice sunny day at the start of the month for DLA302 picking up at the busy Oxford Street bus stop. The destination blind is working, but the refresh rate has been caught by the camera at just the wrong split second.

 Arriving at SHOWBUS international at Donington in September 2017 is Regional Transport DLA273 (Y473UGC), another of the Alexander ALX400 bodied DAF DB250LF fleet. The bus retains its London fleetnumber and basic red livery and compliments Regional Transport's AEC Routemasters at their Shrewsbury base.
