One interesting find at Acton Works on 16th December 2023 was this box trailer, still displaying pre-2003 Engineering services lettering. Numbered CBT57, this is the last survivor of eight Cobul box trailers bought in the 1990s (in this case 1993). Based for a long time at Lillie Bridge for use by the ventilation team, it is believed to have been withdrawn by 2015 (along with the Mercedes Sprinter mobile generators that used to tow it). By 2021 it was dumped in the lorry yard at Acton Works. It would appear that it has recently been cleaned up, perhaps ahead of a sale. Parked behind is Indespension fuel tanker trailer T70, which has also been out of use for some time. |
