| Details: Andrew Lidinson had a peer into Lillie Bridge depot on 5th June 2021 and found a couple of previously unreported vehicles. Both were Ford Transit dropside trucks and shown here is LL20DVK, as seen from the Cromwell Road bridge. The other dropside identified was LL20DVN, and both had been first licensed in August 2020. Since the start of the COVID pandemic we have not received any of the occasional fleetlist updates from Acton Works, and visits by correspondents have naturally been limited. Thus, even though vehicle deliveries were most likely somewhat reduced, there are probably quite a few vehicles that have not yet been reported. Fleetnumbers for these two Transit dropsides are not known, though I would bet they will be either 9044F/9045F or in the 9048F-9050F range. I noticed two other things about this photograph. Firstly, the newish sign on the building in the background points to the EJM Academy. EJM probably refers to 'Every Journey Matters', this being the slogan that appears under the TfL fleetname on virtually all current central fleet service vehicles. I don't know what you might learn at the EJM Academy though! Secondly, and also a change since the last time I was here, several orange-armed pneumatic manipulators have been installed in the area outside the end of Ashfield House. I have no idea what these are for. | ||
