Hi Paul, where did this excercise take place mate and what, if any other appliances took place ?

Added by John Johnstone on 12 April 2009.
Hi John, this was just a walk through setting up the Decontamination equipment, a couple of BA wearers in Chemical suits went through the small shower. The only appliances there were the IRU and rescue pump from Acomb, 2 x rescue pumps York and 1 x rescue pump from Selby.It took place on the 11/04/09 at Nestle factory, Wiggington Road.

Thanks for that Paul, couldn't work out where it was ! looks a very impressive set up, who covered York ?

John, Selby was covered by Selby retained, Acomb and York stopped on the run, York's 1st got a call to people shut in a lift during the drill. The area used in the factory was where a building has recently been knocked down.

I've heard John that 4 new Volvo's are on order with the bodywork built by JDC and not Emergency One, but not confirmed yet. York is down to get 2 of them whoever builds them around September.
