Atlantic LNG water foam tender

In October 2013 Amdac Carmichael Limited completed this water foam tender for Atlantic LNG in Trinidad. The fire tender is based on a Scania P420 4x2 chassis fitted with a CP28 crew cab. It carries 2,500 litres of water; 2,500 litres of foam and 2,500 litres of Hi Ex foam. It features a 10,000 litre per minute bronze pump and a balanced pressure foam system

Are those safety railings on the roof or something else? They look too low to be useful to prevent anyone tripping.

Rob, it looks to me that these railings can unfold / popup... doubling the height.

Interesting that the safety elves have not found out where Trinidad is, yet! Fact is that machines with boxy bodies cannot carry ladders in the new fandangled ways.
Any European brigade would have men with checklists dying of heart failure trying to put this on the run.

Let's hope so - but they would still only be knee high!

John!Take a closer look on the picture! There is a
handle on left side of the rearlocker, it goes up to the ladders!Pull, and you get the ladders in a more
safety angel!
