A group of five plain white Ford Transit Connects was seen in the staff car park at Acton Works in late July 2010. The first one to be seen on the road was CP10JXZ, photographed at Terminus Place (Victoria) on 19th August 2010. As can be seen it retains white livery but has gained small Tube Lines labels. The registration series suggests these were not acquired through the normal lessors, and they may be short-term hires. Their arrival could have been a factor in the withdrawal at about the same time of several Transit Connect mail vans in the 58xxF series.

I was going to suggest that these were the first Welsh-registered vehicles in the central fleet (Cx memory tags are for Cymru, Wx ones are for West of England) but then I found the Cardiff marks on 3329B, 3624F-3626F, 3644F (xKG), 3645F and 4761F (xTG), 3646F (xNY) and 5108F (xAX). Are there any others?
