It looked really weird, so I did a bit of investigating at the time, & if I remember rightly, it was some kind of airport vehicle, I think to load food containers onto planes? Wasnt a million miles from city airport.. That sort of thing? A catering highloader, apparently. uk_senator 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also adapted for transporting wheelchair-bound persons into planes, have been in one when accompanying my FIL. Weird sensation being elevated in one.
