Details: Two of the three Dodge Commando refuse trucks were replaced by larger Mercedes-Benz units in 1990, leaving 2420D (B420XYU) to survive as a spare for a further two years. As such it was the only one of the batch to receive the new white and blue livery, although this curiously featured a blue body, presumably to hide the dirt inevitable with its function. Despite this, all subsequent refuse trucks have had white bodywork. Photographed at Acton Works on 29th April 1992. This picture, taken two years earlier, shows the same vehicle in the same location, in its earlier grey livery.
