| Six Mercedes-Benz 408D trucks numbered 2475-2480M were delivered in April 1990, being among the first in the fleet to carry the new LUL livery. This view taken at Acton Works on the 27th of that month, shows three of the six awaiting entry into service. The first three of the batch had crew-cabs and dropside bodies with tail-lifts, as seen on 2475M in the centre and 2477M to the right. The other three were reported as demountables with single cabs. 2478M, seen on the left here, initially carried a mobile generator but was later converted to a vehicle carrier, and remained in service until at least 2004. 2479M had a caged tipper body, while no pictures of 2480M have been seen. |
