Details: A sign of things to come? There were no obvious service vehicles at the Cordwallis Volkswagen dealership in Bedfont on 24th November 2020, but there were a few plain white vehicles which may yet turn out to be for the central fleet. One of these was VW Crafter dropside truck RE70HYN, as shown here. Apart from a couple of Mercedes Sprinters, all mid-sized dropsides for the central fleet since 2008 have been Ford Transits. Having said that, LUL has taken a few Crafter vans recently, following a large batch for LBSL, and it may be that the type has proved itself suitable. Normally, dropside trucks for LUL would come with blue bodywork, but the fact that the recent Crafter vans have entered service in all white could mean that the livery policies have changed. Note that this truck has the black plastic panel below the headlights and grille, similar to that on the vans at Hainault, but different to the white panel on the LBSL vans and LUL crew vans.
