VX04XRC MAN Pump is seen here at the Fire Service College in 2007. This could have been one of the Appliances destroyed in the Fire, but am uncertain. The bodywork is by Carmichael.

Excuse the ignorance but - what fire? Sounds like there is a good story brewing!

Ah okay thanks, I thought there had maybe been a fire at the College....

The fire at the Fire Service College at Morton in Marsh in Glostershire occurred just before 0900hrs on Saturday 16th May 2009.The fire affected the main appliance storage building and involved the total lose of the building and eleven appliances.
An inquest concluded that the most likely cause of the fire was down to an accidental electrical ignition of combustible materials.
