Bedford HCB ET Warwicks FB EUE104C

Exhibition hall (Olympia, or Earls Court 1960s) photo by Norman Tarling. This complements the picture 37874 as they were taken on the same occasion. You can see CAC571B in the background. This was the big Bedford ET/CU as opposed to the Humber light rescue for the new motorway through Warwickshire.

It is a 1965 registration. Looks like HCB-Angus bodywork. A very typical high roof center aisle British ET (rescue squad) of its day. The chequered band around the roof denotes its alternative role as a mobile incident command unit - which was a fairly common dual application in smaller brigades where these were not all that busy...

Looks similar to Middlesbrough Fire Brigades which can be seen on Flickr if you search DDC999C .
