Details: Ten new lorries joined the Tube Lines fleet in 2008 comprising 6 Merecedes and 4 Ivecos. The last of the 10 to be illustrated on this site is Mercedes-Benz Axor dropside lorry WX08KUY. Sister vehicles WX08KUT and WX08KUV were delivered in April while KUY did not turn up until June or July. An interesting aspect of these vehicles is that several were first registered some days after delivery to Acton, although the WX series are west country registrations associated with the Mercedes importer. On 23rd June 2009, KUY was caught passing Acton Town Station, loaded with a pair of tube bogie frames. Note that the front dropside panel is lowered although whether this was deliberate is not known. |
