Fire Engines Photos

To a Brit like me, it's a rare treat to see something like this. We don't see many platforms from 'over the pond'. A brilliant photo of what looks like one very capable beast! Awsome, Terry.

Andy,
Many thanks for your explanation.
I am not a fire fighter and very much enjoy browsing this website, some of the acronyms are not always clear to the general viewer.
Regards,
Steve

Yelp,
it's a European platform on an American chassis. Platform is a Metz (part of Rosenbauer Group). I'm not sure if American engines will meet EURO 5 criteria. Additionally they are most likely too big for our roads here. So in Europe they are mounted on European chassis.
