The first Mk8 Ford Transit dropside trucks were a pair leased in April 2015 for use by the lifts and escalators division (7909F and 7910F). It was not until the end of that year that further examples arrived, this time mainly to start replacing the numerous older dropsides based at Lillie Bridge. Several were numbered in the 799x range, somewhat behind the current allocations, perhaps suggesting a long lead-time. 7996F was new in February 2016 and was photographed leaving Acton Works on 3rd March. It has a crew-cab and a tail-lift. |
