Gerrards Cross was also opened by the Great Western and Great Central Joint Railway in 1906.
For a short time, Chiltern Railways operated a parliamentary service starting from South Ruislip, nonstop to Paddington and return nonstop to Gerrards Cross. Nowadays, the parliamentary train terminates at West Ealing before nonstopping to High Wycombe.
