A London icon dating from the 1960s is this black taxi-cab. This particular example now carries advertising for Southern Train services to Gatwick Airport...an alternative to the Gatwick Express and somewhat cheaper. There is a possibility that the dedicated service might end with the 460s taking regular passengers and extending them to Brighton to ease overcrowding. Picture taken December 2004.
