Engineering Cars
The engineering fleet is getting smaller especially with the donation of Works Brush 259 to the LTT and the withdrawal of Unimogs 940 and 941. Unimog 939 is now used most by the engineering team but newer Unimog 938 has still to see active service. The other main vehicle used by the team is Engineering Car 754 which has taken on more duties than usual this year.

Leaving the depot on 8 September 2006 Engineering Car 754 is heading for Tower for a session of checking tram pantographs.
