But Thorntons do a lot of work on ex London stock so for them to get a piece of the London refurbs whilst in service too is nice, after all the more work the better.
It seems a canny hike to get a stack of them all the way up here, to send them all the way back down south again.
The price must have been very competitive, just to cover the fuel costs alone - nevermind staff wages, accommodation when dropping off/picking up etc.
