Perth Medium pump/Heavy rescue
Until 2005, the Fire and Rescue Services Authority of Western Australia
had only one rescue vehicle: an elderly Austral. Mainly because of
increasing calls to road accidents, that fire brigade decided early 2006
to reequip four medium pumpers to 'medium pumper heavy rescue' and to
buy one completely new.
Fire Brigade: Fire & Rescue Services of Western Australia (Perth, WA)
type: medium pumper heavy rescue
chassis: Scania P94DB260
bodywork: WA fire Appliances
built: 2001; reequiped 2006
call sign: MPHR73
photo taken in October 2006, when based at Perth's central fire station

The silver-grey cylinder above the word 'RESCUE' is part of this rescue pumper. It houses a stem-light.
The large grey lattice construction above that cylinder is part of the building in the background.
