Details: Volkswagen Transporter crew van 8707VW has already been shown on LTSV, parked at the dealership before delivery. Ray found it in the car park at Acton Works on 15th October 2019. Obviously it now carries full livery, but it has also lost the roof rack it had in the earlier photo. The one report of this vehicle in service was at Earl's Court, and I did wonder if it was allocated to Earl's Court Gardens. Vehicles numbered 8700VW to 8708VW seem to have mainly replaced Peugeot Partner Tepee estates 7448P to 7455P, which had been divided between Earl's Court and Barking (Wakering Road). If 8707VW is at Earl's Court, it would be a tight squeeze into the tiny yard, and perhaps the limited headroom required the removal of the roof-rack...
