Details: An interesting vehicle seen during a 'flypast' of the lorry yard at Acton Works on 5th June 2021 was this Renault C380 3-axle flatbed lorry in the brown and red livery of B R Saunders of Walton-on-Thames. The lorry had a large folding crane behind the cab and (although obscured by the chromed mirrors in this view) had TfL/LUL labels applied to the doors. The registration is of course a 'select' one, and disguises the fact that this lorry was new in 2015. Other service vehicles visible include dustcart WO66HHS on the left, demountable body DB10 and Scania tipper MV69KVM behind, one of the MAN dropside lorries on the right and VW Crafter box van 8833VW and more dustcarts behind that.

Thomas YoungThis lorry also appears in the background of a photo taken at Acton on 12th September 2019! See photo of 8888T.Sat 03/07/21, 22:08
Thomas YoungI have just noticed that this lorry also appears in some (unpublished) Acton 'flypast' photos taken on 11th February 2020. It seems likely that it has remained on hire to LUL continuously since at least that date. Does that mean it should be added to the database?!Fri 25/06/21, 15:56
