Old photo Dawlish WW2 Fire Brigade

Another of the non standard WW2 Fire units in Dawlish. There are no details of pump or car although I suspect the car might be a Humber but I could be miles out...
Probably taken between 1939 and 1942.

This is very much "standard" a commandered / donated / aquired car with conversions of ladder rack and foam gear towing a coventry climax medium trailer pump.

This is not a Coventry Climax (TPm) but a Forest Protection TP(s). That trailer was used for 2 or 3 different makes of trailer pump.
