Northumberland - HoC - LJR 395 + TrP

As promised, here's a shot I took circa 1972-73, showing LJR 395 at Alnwick, when it was operative as a Hose Carrier. In this picture, it's seen with its Trailer Pump atached, and it towed this when operational.

Beautiful pic of an absolute classic combination.

(OK not so classic, but very northern!)

Is that a morris or a BMC van?

Davey: Re the van, it's neither - it's a Commer Superpoise (STY 8) which was the mechanic's van at the time.
