| Of the three Volvo FL6 demountable lorries remaining in stock, 2570V was withdrawn due to accident damage in January 2011. It was still in the yard at Acton Works on 31st August, with a missing rear wheel and a smashed windscreen. This view clearly shows the runners on the chassis used to guide bodies into position, and also the fold-under tail-lift. Also visible is one of the crew-cab demountable bodies (either DB11 or DB12) with an Unfit plate attached. Perhaps this body was on 2570V when it had its accident. Partially hidden behind this is a hydraulic hoist loaded onto a small trailer. The trailer is possibly T69 or perhaps T63 but unfortunately it was not photographed. Further back are dropside trailer CT34 and the mangled front-end of Ford Transit 6932F, also accident damaged. |
