Now at Yorkhill, yorkhill has been decimated by having it down to only 1 pump now there second pump being moved to knighthood station. Sad day's.

Colin has that got anything to do with the Sick Kids and Maternity hospital closing a couple years ago?

Could well be for years west, yorkhill was always a 2 pump and Ariel station in the early 1970s it was home to the command unit, I'm surprised they don't close it and move all into cowcaddens

No its because they needed two appliances at Knightswood to crew there water rescue unit so they moved yorkhill's second as a trial and it became permanent.
