Details: Numerical milestones in the central fleet include vehicles in the round thousands, and also those with numbers made up of the same four digits. The latest example of the latter is 7777R, a Renault Kangoo van new in November 2013. Along with 7778R, the pair are believed to be replacements for Vauxhall Astra vans 6968V and 6969V. As such they are nominally allocated to Baker Street but only likely to be seen there at night. On 6th December 2013 Ray found 7777R parked in Leytonstone. It is notable that the enlarged fleet of the past few years means that these 'magic' numbers are coming around more quickly than before. 7777R arrived just 4 and a half years after 6666V.
