Civil Defence/AFS Command and Control Unit

96-D-26893 is a Mobile Control Unit operated by Dublin CD/AFS......if it has a resemblance to a mobile library...well thats how it started life! Not unique.....they had a similar unit at Moreton in the Marsh.......until they had a fire that is!!!!

Looks like a Wrights of Ballymena body judging by the grille.

Very close Barrie - I'm told this one used to be a mobile shop !

It was a mobile library with Dublin City Council prior to conversion for Dublin Civil Defence as an ICU

Bill,
Thanks for confirming Barrie's version and correcting mine. I was going by what Edie G. had told me in referring to it as a mobile shop.

Can I just ask which chassis this is on please ? Could it be a Volvo of sorts ?

Added by Ian Moore on 27 October 2010.
I think it's a Leyland Swift bus chassis.

I agree Adam, I wish I had asked
