Details: Go Ahead London's Volvo FM tow truck is no stranger to LTSV, but this is the first photo to show it in its current guise. New as VLT46 in 2004, it surrendered this mark in 2017 and became LN04CHL. About a year later it was re-registered again to AF04TOW, this relating to the AF code of its home garage of Putney. It was photographed outside the garage on 20th July 2021 with a WHV class bus on tow. Since last being shown, the livery of the lorry has been amended. The grey skirt, which previously ran the whole length of the bodywork, is now confined to a short section of upsweep at the rear, while the thin stripe at mid-height has been changed from blue to yellow. The panel above the sun visor has changed from red to white and, although not visible in this view due to reflections, it carries the London General logo. Previously the three logos of London General, Go-Ahead and London Central were displayed here. The Volvo FM12 badging below the windscreen has been removed, with the Volvo name now appearing on the corner panels and on the mirror covers.
