Interesting adaptation of a standard bus chassis.

These were some of the turntable ladders the Home Office issued to a variety of National Fire service stations during WWII.

While others were on more conventional Leyland and Dennis chassis, it presumably made sense to use some bus chassis in wartime, as the need for firefighting equipment was a much higher priority than building more buses....
