Saw some light tanker(red ones)in Kelmscott and on Tonkin Hwy heading that way.The driver appeared to be in PPE but the passenger was in blue overalls.Any idea whop they are.
Re: who are they
saw a fire appliance the other day in gosnells, had full fire markings fluro tape and alike but no station signage, looked like a American fire truck though, erm f500 type vehicle looked privately owned but just wondering if any one else has seen it abouts n know who its is n stuffs
Certe, toto, sentio nos in kansate non iam adesse
Re: who are they
Sounds like a privately owned vehicle I've seen pics of around the traps.
Re: who are they
There were 2 of these in WA I think, though I believe 1 is now in SA. Privately owned, and used for private fire protection, airshows, racing etc.

New Fire appliances
hi guys,
i've heard on the grape vine that Christmas Island is getting a new RU 1.4. Can anyone shed any light on that? Does any one have a picture of what it will look like?
Regards
Aaron.

Re: New Fire appliances
It's called a 1.4 Rescue. No news about it from my Vehicle & Equipment Advisory Committee sources. Last I heard it hadn't even been built.redcrab wrote:hi guys,

Re: who are they
ahhh there is currently a prototype 1.4 but it has no Rescue Gear at all in it. Just the same things as a LT and a few extra hoses.
the RU01 is not situated in Perth at the moment Bassendean 2nd is using it for the summer period instead of their light pumper...hopefully this is a sign of good things to come as Guildford have a 2.4, and already both trucks have been out.

Re: who are they
about time guildford and basso 2nd got something more usefull then a LP. and yeah already they have been getting good use, i say they just broke there yearly fire call total in a week. lol
lets just hope that fesa management let them keep the 2.4 or 1.4 as yeah an extra 4 stations can make a big difference on a fire ground.
