| Details: The south end of the lorry yard at Acton Works is home to most of the Staff Welfare Facility vans, all of which are based on high-roof Ford Transit vans. On 1st September 2017 a line-up of nine vans was parked facing the fence. Nearest the camera are two elderly examples in Tube Lines livery (6519F on the left and 6517F on the right) both of which lack the additional side windows. To their left are five of the six added in 2013, all of which are crew vans (with the extra window) and carry LUL livery, while beyond that were another pair in Tube Lines markings. There are sometimes a couple more vans parked at the back (in front of the trees), but these are usually impossible to identify from passing trains. Stranger in the camp is the mid-height Ford Transit van at the far right. This is 7209F, one of two leased in 2012 and carrying Transport for London markings. These were based at the uniform store in North Acton. Sister 7210F was sold in the summer and it seems likely that 7209F was about to follow suit. What has replaced them is not yet known. | ||||||
