This appliance 'surfaced from hibernation' a few months ago..having spent the best part of fifty years in a barn in Lincolnshire..new to Scunthorpe then transferred to Horncastle in the 1960's under Lindsey County Fire Brigade!

Rick, you seem to know a lot about Lincolnshire appliances, do you have any information on Leyland Cub FW 9545, new to Spilsby and now kept in Louth fire station?

Hi Rick, i go out with this engine 'Betsy'for the Firefighters Charity. Next year is her eightieth birthday and we want to find out where in London she was stationed at during The Blitz, and when she returned to Lincolnshire?
