Worked for a company and we had equipment containing Winchester Drives aka hard disks, and two data centres, one at Warrington and one in London, with a common spares pool , this sometimes required transfer between sites. After a couple of "Dead on Arrival" incidents when trying to fit a spare that had been moved between sites out of hours, it had to be impressed on staff, that motorcycle couriers were not to be used to move them.

I was at college in Bournemouth in 1979 / 1980 and have memories of an 08 and a parcels van in the bay at Bournemouth Central (opposite end, same side to that used by stopping services). Never saw the 08 in action at anytime.

Late 1960's I remember sitting on Northampton (Castle) Station and on several occasions observed Northbound parcels trains which would pull into the riverside platform and vans would be unloaded during an extended station stop. The other platform face of this island platform was used for Northbound Passenger trains. GPO traffic came out of Passenger train (EMU's) guards compartments and was met by GPO staff, the Sorting Office being remote in the Town Centre. However there was a large amount of outgoing traffic and the former Northbound bay platforms would both contain parcel stock, being filled with amongst other items, large quantities of inflated footballs in large paper sacks from Mettoy. Do not remember any detaching of vehicles.
