Details: When we first saw this photo we assumed it was of a Transit tipper, clues being the unpainted bodywork (most dropsides have blue bodies), the high mud-guards and the headboard. However, looking at the Ford Transit specification sheet, it appears that this is a factory-fitted dropside body after all. These have all the features above, plus the step below the front. 6386F was probably brand new (note the lack of dirt in the back) when seen on Cody Road, West Ham on 3rd July 2008. This location is close to the new West Ham bus garage but there is also a Grant Rail depot nearby, which could explain the presence of a Tube Lines vehicle.
