| Details: In recent years the central fleet has required just two box vans (as opposed to panel vans). One is based at Acton Works (currently 7749F), while the other is with LUL's Technical Services AVI (Auto Video Inspection) section based at Hearne House (Acton Town). The latter allocation has recently been renewed with 8541F replacing 6685F. Apart from being a Mk8 Transit, this van differs in having an over-cab extension. I'm not sure if this streamlined type is classified as a 'Luton' van, this name usually applying to vans with a full-width extension over the cab, as seen on 5494F. The van also has a tail-lift and was photographed parked at Hearne House on 13th March 2018 alongside Transit Custom van 8515F. The departure of 6685F means there are now only nine service vehicles remaining with 6xxx fleetnumbers. | ||||
