Strange looking vehicle but quite nice, where are the ladders?

Looks a bit strange with no Light Bar, cant be doing with that!

I believ it's only used within the Oil Terminal at Grangemouth hence lack of light-bar etc.

Resembles an Airport Crash Truck with a clean roof-line.
Can see the blue flashing lights.
Perhaps low overhead clearance around the Oil Terminal is a
factor - no light-bar or other top-mounted gear, like a foam
monitor, spot-lights ....
Can this truck respond alone, or does it have to work with
another unit, like a Pump ?

Beautifully clean roof-line, which gives her the appearance of being extremely feminine and mystique. There is absolutely no need for a roof covered in gory bar lights and rubbish! 10/10 for the guys in workshops with the courage and foresight to be trend-setters!!

It does carry ladders. The reason for it having no light bar is it is to large for to fit into the old station with a light bar

It must be pointed out that fire appliance design is for the benifit of the users of the machine and not to please fire engine enthusiasts! Yes we all have our own personal ideas and there is nothing wrong with that but I do feel that some comments are somewhat inappropriate
