Details: More tow truck 'bling', photographed at Elephant and Castle on 30th September 2011. Cedars are one of several companies that share London bus recovery work with Sovereign (last being shown on this site back in 2006). Their fleetnumber 27 is VX03CK, a Volvo FH 3-axle recovery unit which is apparently a '420 With Attitude'! Note also the Volvo logos and saucy etchings on the chrome mirror covers. The bus was Camberwell's PVL315, one of several temporarily being used on route 453. This route was converted from bendy-buses on 24th September, but not all the Enviro 400 buses had been delivered in time. To provide cover, newly delivered Volvo/Wright buses intended for route 12 were used on route 45, releasing PVLs for use on the 453! It is barely visible in this resized photo, but the dot in the sky to the right is a Chinook helicopter.
