Is it possible that I have seen this engine in the back of Paddington FS mid 2011?

Why the high roof? It makes it look like it was originally intended to be an ET or HLL, not a TL.

Yes Peter it was at Paddington Fire Station for about 6 months.

If you look at picture 32036 you can see there is a full height locker located in the centre of the rear platform. The roof line is styled up to the same height. I suspect it also helped provide a small amount of cover to other equipment stowed on the open rear work area.
