Details: LUL's fleet in 2000 contained five refuse collection trucks, comprising a 10-year old, 3-axle Mercedes (2482M), two smaller units (Mercedes 2556M and Iveco 2564F) and a pair of 3-axle ERF EC8s. Bought in 1996, these were the only ERFs to join the central fleet and they lasted for a little over six years. Although sometimes listed as 2557E and 2558E, they actually carried plain fleetnumbers without a maker's suffix, as seen on 2558 at Stanmore Station on 13th December 2001. The arrival of Mercedes Econics 2582M and 2583M the following summer spelled the end for the two ERFs, although at least one stayed in London with a new owner.
