Fire Engines Photos

Hello there. My late father was the TL operator for Guildford Red Watch for twenty years from about this time. If you have a higher resolution copy of the photo you could send me I shall keep it to show my 2 year old son when he grows up. We have a model of my dad's 1955 F8 Dennis in Surrey livery as a model for hom, one of the Lledo series, and I am just starting to piece together some items for my son to get to know what his Grandad was like. His name was Don 'Brigham' Young and he qualified out of Reigate around 1963.

Many thanks for your help.

I photographed 49 WPA in Blackpool Pleasure Beach corporate colours in 1988. Looks silly in blue and white.
