Fire Trucks

Somebody did send me a round tuit:
< www.bing.com/images/search?q=Round+Tuit&...nd+Tuit&FORM=IGRE> ;

I still have two NZ ones to find and bring into this single thread.

A preserved fire appliance on a platform at the former main KL station, now used only as a suburban-train halt (the long-distance is 1-2 km further along).
IIRC it was owned and operated by the railway, as the appliance in the main railway workshops. The railway was very British colonial.
Which drew a response:
A Dennis F1 of late 40s/early 50s, now relocated to a new railway museum in Johor Bahru; due to open in Mar.12 .

...it's a great idea condensing all the various random pics into an orderly format....keep up the good work Rodders, as it's all appreciated.....cheers

970921Su Nunawading (Melbourne, Vic.). Wobbies World, Dennis fire appliance. R Smith.

I had a phone call from a guy in Melbourne recently who claims he acquired it. He has a few fire engines. I can't remember his name, but he is a member of HCVC, but not on the forum.

Here are three more which I had up in a different thread.
All are CFA trucks, called in to provide water for our steam tours in an era when the former water supply had been removed.

The other thread was 'Fire Appliance', in the general truck chat section.:

I also had some in various threads in the events section.

Looks like an ACCO.

Jarrod.

The cab seems to be sitting up high, so probably a 510/610 4x4?

Thanks for that. In chasing for Acco 510, I found some for sale which were former fire tenders.

Heres one I saw in Switzerland recently a 1977 Saurer no longer in use but in preservation by the local brigade

That Saurer is a great addition.
Bringing together more from other threads.
