| Arriva the Shires has followed its Southern Counties counterpart in becoming a keen user of former London taxis as crew ferry vehicles. CF25 (R146NGT), photographed at Hemel Hempstead Bus Station on 22nd March 2012, is rather interesting. It is the first example of the London Taxicabs International (LTI) TX1 model to be reported as a service vehicle. This design supplanted the long-lived FX4 in 1997. CF25 is reported to have been acquired for Southern Counties at Dartford, but soon moved to the Shires, perhaps before entering service. The number CF25 follows on from recent ASC taxis, while the Shires has since used numbers from CF73 upwards. Finally the colour scheme with yellow bonnet, boot and upper parts is rather distinctive. |
