| Very much a one-off in the CDS fleet, 1995L was a Leyland Lynx artic tractor, featuring the 'Ergomatic' cab design used on several AEC and Leyland models. New in September 1976, it was the first Leyland lorry added to the fleet since the early 1950s (there had been some Leyland breakdown tenders in the 1960s but these were specialised vehicles based on the chassis of the Titan PD3 bus). Derek caught 1995L passing through Hammersmith on 19th June 1981, with its regular partner, York semi-trailer YT28 (new in 1977 and destined to remain in stock until 1995). 1995L was withdrawn in July 1982, having been replaced by new Ford Cargo 2373F, and it was sold in early 1983. |
