London Fire Brigade E41 Orpington Volvo FL6.14 Saxon Sanbec Rescue Pump Ladder (DPL797) M797LYP with experimental Hi-Viz markings for the M25 March 1996
I'm guessing the yellow tape outlining the vehicle is reflective. Outlining the vehicle is good thing to be doing, otherwise you can see tape reflecting but can't always tell what you are looking at. Fast foward to modern times, London fire brigade don't outline the vehicle with reflective tape
