Details: This photo appeared on the title page of Kim Rennie and Bill Aldridge's excellent book on LT service vehicles published in 2003. It shows Underground van V48 being loaded with stripped posters at Lambeth North Station. 50 of these vehicles were built at Chiswick Works in 1923-1925, featuring bus-like radiator grilles and cast plates for the fleetnumbers V1 to V50. I have listed the 2-tone (or 3-tone if you include the silver roof) livery on V48 as being red/lake, although I am now unsure of where this information came from. The vehicle record card has survived but it (unusually) does not show this detail.
