| Details: Roving reporter Ray Monk scores a triple scoop with this photo taken on Bollo Lane on 1st December 2009. 6848F is the highest number reported so far, and it is the first example of the 2009 Ford Connect to be illustrated. This features a revised grille with similarities to the latest Transit design. Most significantly, it carries a new variant of the standard livery which we expect is the long-awaited replacement scheme for the vehicles in the former Metronet operations. Several vans and cars have been seen with the London Underground lettering and roundels (the latter also being worn on the fronts) including vehicles delivered earlier in the year. It would seem that they are also to gain a red stripe at the top of the blue skirt. This ties in with the livery on the new class 378 trains for London Overground, which are white and blue with an orange stripe. The vehicle by the way is a Ford Tourneo Connect, a type that is either a big car or a small minibus! Oh, and it's not yet on the database.... | |||
