Can recall a fatal accident with a cyclist in Craghead a few years ago involving a Chester Lime although the vehicle wasn't transferred. Likewise when 6065 hit a cyclist in Low Fell a few years ago.
Seems to be mostly the case when the vehicle involved is not branded and therefore repaints don't need to occur.
