| Details: London United received nine high-roof Ford Transit vans for garage engineer's use in May 2012. Three have been withdrawn over the past couple of years, perhaps as a result of accident damage, and it now looks like the remainder will be replaced very soon (q.v.). This photo shows FT70006 departing from Hammersmith Bus Station on 11th July 2020 and shows a previously unreported change. EK12OLB was unique among the batch in being in plain red, with just small FT6 fleetnumbers for identification. As such it was believed to be for head office use rather than any particular garage. Following the withdrawal of similar FT70005 (originally FT5) in 2019, FT6 appears to have been transferred to Stamford Brook for engineering use. In connection with this, it gained company lettering, new fleetnumber FT70006 and also a light-bar on the roof and small lights on the front grille. It can be recognised from the other vans in the batch by having Buses roundels, smaller company lettering, larger fleetnumbers and a low-profile, LED light-bar. | |||
