Your right there Richard. The day they entered service .. I worked the traffic 
office for Bebb [i hate to use the word veolia] when these arrived FJ07DWK and 
DWL ????? I believe thats right.. But it was my last 2 weeks before i returned 
to my roots in Cwmbran.. I spent 10 out 14 days retrieving them from either 
Scania Heathrow or Scania Cardiff.. I believe i had to leave Llantwit Fardre 
with a CN05XXX to take up light to Victoria for Mr Sanders to operate the 0800 
back to Cardiff and i had to wait in Victoria for a phone call from Scania 
Heathrow to collect it DWL to get it back. and that was after Scania saying all 
sorted now.. i did this trip at stupid o clock in the morning 3 times that 
week..

Happy memories

Apart from problems with the aircon these have been useful additions to the 
fleet which is more than can be said for the first two Levante's which were 
nothing but trouble from the day they entered service.
