Each month, Stagecoach London produces a document showing its current bus fleet and summarising recent changes. Mainly for staff use, these 'Fleet Cards' were for a while also made publicly available on the company website. They are useful to us since they also include the service vehicle fleet, and fortunately I am still sent copies due to my connections with LOTS. In mid-2022, the number of service vehicles listed increased when about a dozen vehicles marked as 'Hired Taxi' were added. This seems to be how they refer to crew ferry vehicles, though interestingly the additions were quite a mixture of cars and vans. I wasn't going to add these to LTSV at first. They were not given company fleetnumbers, were in a variety of colours and were believed to be unmarked. However, they remained on subsequent lists, suggesting that they had been in use for at least a couple of months, so I decided that they should be listed. When Bob visited Barking on 19th September 2022 he saw a couple of the vehicles. Probably the smallest was this Toyota Aygo car parked outside the garage. Useful as the Stagecoach list is, it is not infallible. They are still showing a couple of Hyundai minibuses at Rainham which we believe have actually gone, while they have the Plumstead engineers van as being YE15EEU, which was actually replaced by MJ20UVH over 2 years ago. |
