Gero is one of the 4 career FESA country stations, hence not VFRS.

Nice shot mate.

You are possibly right on this Tom I am very new to this but the Gero station has a sign out the front that says Geraldton Volunteer Fire Brigade, so I naturally took it that they were vollies... let me know so I can change the VFRS to what it should be ??

I will put my L plates on
:D

Geraldton Career and Volunteer Fire & Rescue Services are based at the same location.

The career firies don't advertise for new members. From what I recall the vollies only have a single cab GPA (General Purpose Appliance). As Tom correctly stated, the pic you have taken is of the MPHR (Medium Pumper Heavy Rescue) appliance of the career firies. It looks similar to the MPHR that Albany has.
