Geleen Bedford

In 1957 this Bedford A5LCG was first seen in the fire station of the Dutch city of Geleen. It has a ladder from the German firm Magirus. On the front there is a pump which has a capacity of 800 l/m.

Another Bedford beauty, and a Front-Mount Pump, too - good to see it immaculately in preservation.

Let's see... chassis, engine and cab from Britain; ladder and turntable from Germany; pump and drive ?.....all engineered together in The Netherlands, to make this great rig.

Thanks, Marcel, for showing us.

Regards, from Canada,
