BR2 landmarks - Hayes Common
Callouts from Hayes Common and Shortlands station are routine for the BR2 Hayes / Shortlands / Bickley fleet - event and visitor parking, staff-only car parks and long-stay bays all produce their share of flat batteries, tyre failures and lockouts. Operators arrive with the right kit for large car parks (extended ramps, long jump leads, hydraulic lockout tools) so they can reach a vehicle even when it's parked deep inside a multi-storey.
