Standard type of pumper in the Netherlands. Note the long and almost full-width powered roof rack for the suction hoses, ground ladders and other long items. This has been s regular feature in the Netherlands for more than a decade now.

This feature speeds up removal and restowing of all the items carried on the roof, avoids anyone needing to climb up on the roof, and increases available body space in the rear side and central lockers above the pump compartment.

It is also rather common now in Germany, and beginning to be specified in other European countries.
