| The largest block of continuous fleet numbers allocated to a single type of tube support vehicle is the range 6169VW to 6188VW. As the suffixes suggest, these are Volkswagen vehicles, being Transporter vans with the curious mid-height roof design and allocated to Metronet BCV. Until recently the batch was particularly camera shy, seemingly only coming out at night. However quite a few have been caught in the last couple of months. First up is 6171VW seen in the car park at Loughton Station on a sunny 8th June 2009. It was parked alongside 6198F, one of several Ford Focus Hatchback cars taken into the numbered fleet in recent years. 6197F to 6199F are allocated to the same operational pool as the VW vans, and wear white livery with varying amounts of lettering. 6198F has just the 'Working in partnership' portion of the standard logos. |
