This Leyland Freighter recovery truck was delivered in 1982 and spent most of its life based at Cricklewood bus garage in North West London. In 1991 it was reallocated to Acton works and repainted from red to the LUL standard white and blue livery. It was also given the incorrect number of 2372M instead of 2372L. While similar vehicles had their twin jibs replaced with hydraulic lifting gear suitable for recovering buses, this example appears to have a single jib fitted and was presumably used to rescue broken down service vehicles.
