MINI FIRE TRUCK WESTERN AUSTRALIA

Photographed 2 November 2008

Singleton Volunteer Bush Fire Brigade.

You can see little "Squirt" is a proper little fire engine complete with water tank, pump and hose reel, yellow bush fire rake, fire lighter for back burning, standpipe and hose, etc, etc.

He even has a two-way radio to talk to the big fire trucks and lots of lights and sirens to let you know he's coming and you better get out of his way when there is a big bush fire!

Cor blimey mate,the cutbacks have finally hit you to then.This could be the way forward though here in the UK before long if things get much worse.

I agree Pete, though try turning this into a Carp and you might have a stability issue!!

Cor blimey mate,me again.Have just noticed the roo-bar on the front,is that to keep the little old Aussie Kangos,or those other little mites(kids)from jumping around all over it?.
I dare'nt let my grand children see this picture otherwise they'll all want one to play with.

What a great little rig, Pav; lots of fun for the Big and Little Kids.

Love the neat stowage for the red (New Yorker) helmets !

The Rakehoe is the real name for that 'yellow bush fire rake', we never use them really, but there always good to have for holding our helmets. We never need to do much dry firefighting because of our real full sized light tankers that can fit almost everywhere. Hence their other name or title a fast attack vehicle. He's a good little light tanker, the kids love him, and we enjoy seeing him too!
