Details: After a gap of over 2 years, some new full-sized lorries were delivered in August 2014. Two have so far been reported, both MAN TGM 18.250 dropside lorries similar to the pair delivered in 2012 (RV12OEY and RV12OEZ). Differences include LUL livery (with the silver safety stripe above the red stripe), a slightly re-designed front end, a short dropside door for crew access and (on RK14ETU at least) a much larger than normal tail-lift. The lifts and escalators section has always specified large tail-lifts and RK14ETU has been allocated to Griffith House (where it was photographed in the early hours of 22nd August) as a replacement for Iveco 2585I. The other addition (RK14ETT) has been noted at Acton Works and could be a replacement for MAN 2579.
