This is one of ten FRU's in the brigade. The old Volvo / Carmicheal FRU's are now used as spare appliances.

Ten of these seems a lot?

Does LFB operate rescue pumps. like other brigades? Or, do they rely on these units for all responses to RTA's, collapse incidents, water rescues, extrication's and other similar emergencies?
