| This photograph is notable for two reasons. Firstly, it is the 500th photo by Ray Monk to be published on this site. Ray has made huge contributions to LTSV over the past four years. As well as thousands of vehicle licensing checks he has travelled extensively and submitted over 1200 photos and countless reports. In terms of published photos he is rapidly approaching Colin Lloyd's lead of 569, although to be fair Colin did have a 20 year head-start! This photo is also the first decent shot of a vehicle from the 6637 to 6643 batch. These seven Renault Trafic crew vans were taken on lease in November 2008 but carried neither lettering nor numbers. It is more normal for vehicles to be given fleet livery but not assigned numbers, the reason perhaps being that these vans (along with the other vehicles in the 6627 to 6646 range) are used on a pool basis. They certainly appear to be allocated to various operations at different times. 6642 has been noted at Lillie Bridge a few times but was found parked outside a house in Falconwood on 27th April 2010. As an aside, I would not normally publish photos of vehicles taken at what are presumably their driver's homes but under the circumstances I will make an exception. |
