it is quite sad.

all these flash new pumps, scannias, set's clp, plus the good old vintage trucks,

and then to spoil the good show, they brought the mazda lp. why does that truck remind me of fredy the fire engine, lol i think freddy can bet the mazda in a race. lol

The reason for the mazda was that it was the vehicle that was at rockingham prior to the HSR - GPA so was one of the vintage appliances. Just to show the progression of vehicles that the station have had.

Do they ever use the slow down emergency yellow cones?

Haven't seen them used by BFS/FRS though we're meant to. But yes SES well Stirling anyway does use them for callouts.

Fastlane.

Yes we have a diesel bowser in the rear yard. Makes it so much easier to fill the trucks. Wouldnt be many stations with one would there ?.

Toottoot,

Have seen and used the signs a fair amount though its normally only at scrubbies .
