Crikey a 'K' plate still on the run!!! and I thought we were bad with an 'N' plate for our station. Mind you, prefer the look of the Volvo in comparison to what we have.
Hi Steve we have just taken our last 'J'plate scania out of service, this being J163 GUS which was allocated to Muirkirk retained station in East Ayrshire.What type of appliance is at your station ?
Hi Tommy, We're currently running with a series 3 scanny. The oldest operational, i.e. on the run, machine in L&B's fleet. The shape of our appliance bay dictates the machines that will fit in it unfortunately. As much as am kinda fond of the scanny ( remember them from growing up in Glasgow ), I really like the look of the volvo machines. Seem more fit for purpose.
Hallo Tommy, yeh work with L&B at the only retained station within the city of Edinburgh. Not sure why Crewe Toll's Scanny TL would be through at Barrhead. No-one has said if it has been sold. lol. will try and find out though.
Now 'off the run' This appliance is supposed to be going to fire cadets in East Dumbartonshire.

M337 DSU is now now a fire reach appliance based at TO4 Yorkhill. M335/336DSU have gone to a scrap dealer in Alexandria,they are both badly smashed up as they were used for an RTC training exercise
