Details: Ford Transit vans have for some time been available in three different heights, as well as a variety of lengths. The tallest and longest vans are known as jumbos and here is an example of a Mark 5 Transit Jumbo. 4950F (T704MPP) delivered in 1999 was lettered for London Underground, Lifts Escalators and Pumps. The extra length is evident by the short centre panel, while the height has necessitated the use of extended supports for the roof bars. A thin metal box is mounted on the roof, together with flashing lights, and the vehicle also has non-standard, flared rear wheelarches. Photographed at Victoria station on 27th March 2001. |
