Fire Engines Photos

very strange appliance, massive front and than such a tiny bodywork only able to carry a large 60 feet ladder, and only a crew of 3 (they needed a personell carrier as a mate, to operate the ladder+the pump and handlines simultanesly I guess ?!)

Very distinctive rig !

Impressive protective guard-rails for the front-mount pump.... and the "marker" wands for the driver

My guess - she is designed for the narrow, cramped streets, and overhanging structures, of the old medieval town.

Thanks for the great photo.

It does look like a lot of pump, a lot of hose and a lot of ladder for a three man crew. But there does not seem to be any room for a water tank or hose reel.

Hi Rob! There is a hose-reel in the open compartment!

Anders:

It looks like a hose cart with flat hose, not a fixed reel with tubing.
