A quite early example of an (almost) full width bodied fire pumper, with transverse bench seats for the crew and half doors to keep people from falling out! The Magirus wooden ladder next to it also has a full with cowl and doors. It would have had a four seat bench behind the driver’s compartment, facing to the rear.
