A very interesting vehicle found at the ERU/BTP press launch at Canary Wharf on 9th February 2012 was this Suzuki AN400 motorcyle. As can be seen, it carries Tube Lines and ERU lettering on its silver bodywork, along with some very neatly prepared reflective panels. The vehicle will reportedly be used to transport small urgent parts, such as signal relays. As far as I know, this is the first liveried motorcycle for the central fleet since the departure of the London Buses Honda ST1100s in January 2006.

I do hope that top-box has some kind of shock absorbing lining fitted if it is designed to carry glass enclosed relays. I can just imagine the result of a few speed humps taken too enthusiastically! Incidentally, this is not a new idea being first suggested over 10 years ago, but not approved by Distribution Services at that time.

The main storage area is actually below the rider's seat - which hinges upwards. Let's hope there's a rubber-cushioned shelf inside!
