Details: Here is an oddity: A service vehicle that only got its fleetnumber after it was disposed of! Ford Transit jumbo crew van LM62YSR was new in late 2012 and, although allocated fleetnumber 7478F, never actually carried this on its Tube Lines livery. Disposed of via BCA in autumn 2016, it was later bought by LOTS (the publishers, rather confusingly, of ''The London Bus'' magazine and the ''London Bus Magazine''). A van or minibus has been used for many years to move staff and sales stock to and from bus events such as open days and rallies. The last couple of these have been given pseudo-fleetnumbers, based on the then highest membership number. With the Transit it was decided to use its actual fleetnumber. The newly re-lettered van was seen in Kennington on 23rd March 2017. |
