Details: James photographed this dustcart in a low sun at Edgware sometime in the latter half of the 1980s. Although his photos taken of the front were better, I have chosen to use this one of the rear, as it shows the fitting of a bin lift. These appear to have been fitted some time after the lorries were delivered in 1985, and can be seen more clearly in Derek's photo of similar 2421D. Because the lifting gear obscured the original rear hazard markings, new markings were carried on plates added to the bodywork on either side. Note also that the exhaust pipe runs up inside one of the bodyside ribs to exit at roof level.
