Hi Gary. These were top heavy, dont know if you have seen the note on picture 6524 in I mention they go a job empty then find the nearest water and then when full proceed to the job at reduced speed.They are no longer in service. North Yorkshire now run 2 water carriers which are a lot better for the job, but the brigade are trying to stop getting pumping appliances tied up for long periods so us the tankers.
