Details: The new Ford Transit dropside trucks delivered in November 2019 were all to the pre-2020 facelift design, and they are likely to all be for use by LUL. 8987F was found near the Gunnersbury Lane entrance to Acton Works on 19th November, when it was just over a week old. Bollo House can be seen in the left background, on the other side of the tube tracks. There are plans to redevelop the TfL-owned land on which this sits, and also the rest of the land along Bollo Lane as far as the level crossings. If this goes ahead, the main road entrance to Acton Works will have to be moved. The roadway seen here comes out beside Acton Town station and could perhaps be used, though it is rather narrow. The only other possibility would be the creation of a new access road across the old sports ground in the south-west corner of the works and coming out on Gunnersbury Avenue.
