Fire Engines Photos

These were wartime-issue light pumps, with a nine man cab and an 800 LPM PTO-driven pump. Equipment was pretty much limited to hoses, fittings and an 8 meter ladder, although a primitive canvas stretcher was sometimes included, as seen in this photo.

Although blue lights were already in use by 1943, this unit has a gong instead of air horns.
