I was surprised to see this photo of Abellio Ford Fiesta van NG56HNF at Beddington Cross garage on 26th March 2024. First licensed in December 2006, it has been with Abellio since at least autumn 2010 (over 13 years) and it is one of the oldest service vehicles still in use in London. Having said that, the van does have a VOR (Vehicle Off the Road) sign in the windscreen, and Transport UK (as Abellio is now known) has been getting rid of many older cars and vans, so its days may be numbered. The van lurking in the shadows inside the garage belongs to Grayson Thermal Systems. This firm is involved in thermal management systems for electric buses (among other things), and various new buses for Transport UK have been noted at their premises in the West Midlands prior to delivery to London. |
