Details: Last week I showed one of the last three lorries bought by LCBS (London Country Bus Services), and here comes another one. Comparison of this view of 68F at Hertford Garage in May 1987 with the one of 66F at Crawley will show some relatively subtle differences. 66F was a Cargo 0811, while 67F and 68F were Cargo 1011s. The differences include wider mudguards on the cab of the larger lorries, and bodywork that is mounted higher-up and with deeper sides in metal rather than wood. The revised location for the front numberplate may not be of significance. Like 66F, 68F is believed to have passed to Gatwick Engineering in 1986, this perhaps accounting for the lack of lettering in this view. It is not known if it ever gained the new white/yellow/red livery.
