Are the two leyland ex gmcfs fire engines still here?

Added by Danny jones on 20 May 2014.
When I last visited in May 2013 both Leylands were abandoned in the compound of the Government transport workshop. The hot climate has faded the paintwork and parts have been removed to keep other vehicles on the island on the road. They have not moved in the past three years I have visited the island and were only fit for scrap.

What a shame, I remember these rushing around manchester when I was younger. Do you have any pictures of these?
