This 1950 Surrey registered AEC Regent III was photographed on The Stray, Harrogate, England in August 1998 having just completed the HCVS Trans-Pennine Run.
I have no history on this appliance.

Presumably this was retired from the Rowntree fire brigade before the Minster fire, or else it would have been deployed to it before - or instead of - the Harrogate one.

Ed: actually I think the Flickr picture may be mis-labelled! Is there any evidence the AEC was at Rowntree?
