New North wales Volvo 2022

New to service Volvo for North Wales, Emergency one built, note how they’ve gone away from the flat top 'All Wales' bodies they’ve used for the past 15 years.

Ed: PJ22GKF if you look carefully on the lightbar you can see the Martin horns this brigade still uses

Believe these are now on the run across the service. The following stations have received a new appliance
Wrexham
Deeside
Rhyl
Holyhead
Llandudno
Colwyn bay
Aberdyfi

Unsure how many are due to enter service

Air horns much more distinctive than wailers

Still the norm in many countries.

I agree! Much nicer than the flat top volvo! Do the 2nd pumps & alternative RDS stations still run without a 13.5m ladder, making them look like they've left the ladders on station!!

The electric ladder gantries on the flat tops were amazingly slow. In the time taken an escape could have been slipped and pitched.
