Details: Quite a few service vehicles have been stranded at the Cordwallis VW dealership in Bedfont due to the COVID-19 restrictions. These include some Crafter vans for LBSL, which have been gaining full livery before delivery. Three of these are visible in the background of this photo taken on 6th June 2020, the one in the middle being 9087VW. There are also at least six Caddy Maxi crew vans with registrations RK20UYA-UYF. First noted on 3rd March (when they were in plain white), by mid-March some had gained blue skirts, but they remained unlicensed. By the time of Derek's June visit, the vans were all still present, and all had been given blue skirts. A surprise was that the vans were then given fleetnumbers and lettering on-site, a visitor on 18th June finding the batch had become 9128-9133VW. Although the LBSL IRUs were marked up here, all other vehicles in the past have been delivered to Acton in a plain state. RK20UYB (seen here) is now 9131VW. When these vehicles actually get licensed, delivered and put into service remains to be seen.
