I would imagine it would be going to Doune or a retained station with an old appliance

will that be after the RTA damage after the RTA involving this pump. My condolences go out to the driver's family. The driver was killed today when this appliance hit his car enroute to a shout in boness

Just to clarify this thread, the above appliance will be for the forseable future be at Bo'ness being used by the wholtime, when (and if) the CARP's come on the run they will be allocated to Falkirk and Stirling(supposedly) to replace one pump and ALP, the two pumps at Stirling and Falkirk will move out to retained stations in a cascade, leading to the eventual withdrawl of the two oldest pumps in the service. Currently, I believe there is a photo going around somewhere(www.bebo.com/PhotoAlbumBig.jsp?PageNbr=1&MemberId=4849184920&PhotoAlbumId=6827560667&PhotoId=7415962544) of two new style volvo fl chassis sitting at CSFRS HQ awaiting body work, these will also likely(big probability) go to a wholetime station as well and then the cascade happens again, so, likely to go(as oldest in fleet) G401HLS, G402HLS, H701OLS, J366VLS, J368VLS or J369VLS and definetly K456EMS.
