| Details: This Mercedes Vito minibus was new to the Metrobus fleet in 2013, being numbered 8069 and allocated to Beddington Lane. About a year later it moved to Northumberland Park as part of a reshuffling of the Go-Ahead London crew ferry fleet. Three years later it moved again to Morden Wharf, by which time it had lost its Metrobus fleetnames and number. Then in late 2019 it was reported to be at Merton, which was odd since this garage had never previously had an allocation of crew ferry vehicles. Licensing data suggested that it had been sold in early 2020, although it now appears that this was incorrect or perhaps reversed. Neal found it passing near Waddon Station on 5th April 2021. Still unmarked, it had gained yellow side stripes, while the notices in the window show that it was still in crew ferry use. The notices state that face coverings must be worn, that ''this ferry vehicle'' can only carry 2 passengers, and that passengers must sit in the designated seats! I am not sure if this minibus is still working from Merton, though it seems more likely that it has returned to its original home of Croydon (Beddington Lane). | ||
