| Six Renault Kangoo vans delivered in October 2017 were non-standard in having electric power and additional hydrogen range extenders. The vans (8611R to 8616R) were often to be seen near Acton Works and it seems likely that at least some of them were used for internal mail deliveries. Three of the batch appear to have been disposed of in early 2021, while it now looks as though the remainder are also going. 8612R was seen in the van yard at Acton Works on 25th September 2021. It was still at Acton a fortnight later but had had all of its livery and lettering removed. I was going to say that perhaps their period of trial operation had ended, but they in fact chalked up a fairly typical 4 years' service. I understand that larger vans will be acquired in the future, so that there is more space on the back to apply the various safety and warning signs! |
