Light up, light up as if you have a choice,
Even if you cannot hear my voice.
I'll be right beside you dear.

They don't seem to be the best - roaring fans are common (I think that is DPF regen cycle), and oil up the back of the 20 plates is a common site too.

Roaring fans seems to be very common on Streetlite & StreetDecks.

Could they be from a Cancelled order for a different operator? If they were available at the right price they could have easily been additionally acquired
