Geoff, quality photo! I have very fond memories of the hook ladder on the TL, , , ,

The TL is Merryweather - why is the make not credited?

hello can anyone give me any info on people who restor these fire engines? We have just brought a AEC 1962 fire engine. Its the one with a turnable ladder on top. Any information would be great ful

Julia The Reg number and original brigade would be useful and if possible a photo. Membership of the Fire Service Preservation Group could be useful to you as well.

IN the 1960s Essex ran a fleet of 100% Dennises with Rolls-Royce petrol engines, except for two AEC Merryweather diesel TLs and two diesel Leyland Firemaster ET-Ps. I do not know why they did not choose Dennis chassis for these four units, to keep the fleet standard.
