I was at the workshop in Inverness on Friday. There were several old Volvos on the yard. One of them was from Lincolnshire. Anyone any idea what they are doing with these appliances ?

All i know is that Translinc owned them and leased them to Lincolnshire Fire, that terminated and Asset Co were chosen for a new lease. AssetCo had to replace all the vehicles Translinc owned and did so with 33 new Mans and 23 refurbished LFB volvos. Translinc sold many at auction so one may have been bought and sent up to where you saw it, could you tell me which one you saw.

most of the 51 plates went to Inverness some are also in Ireland, we delivered a few of them on behalf of translincs. i brought one of the h reg volvos from translinc, i run two ex Lincolnshire pumps also theres one at east kirkby to provide cover for the lancaster on taxi runs.also my pump operator was Lincolnshires brigade mechanic for 15 years. he can help with reg numbers etc
