The A-series was designed to fill the gap in Ford's range between the largest Transits and the smallest D-series lorries. However, it never achieved the same level of success as either of the other two models. A total of 8 A0609s were bought by London Transport, including 3 of these stretched Railway Breakdown Tenders. The use of a crew cab resulted in a very long wheelbase on these vehicles. New in 1979, they lasted until the late 1980s. 2135F (YYH135F) was photographed awaiting the call at Baker Street station on 28th December 1985. |
