NSW Fire Brigades - Pump

I assume this would be equivalent to our Heavy or Medium Pump. This unit is from Silverwater station and was photographed at Sydney Olympic Park.

One of these I think.

Class 3 Pump. I'd say similar spec to Urban Pump. Most pumps over here carry a little more salvage equipment than WA, but slightly less Rescue gear due to the Rescue arrangements.

Believe it is a spot light.

The pump is equivalent to a series 3 or 4 medium over here@3600lt/min capacity, it has the same Godiva pump as a series 3 MP. Good appliances, great pump set-up although i reckon transverse pumps are better- safer and closer to the cab for radio and mdt etc.

Just got back from Sydney and can confirm its a spotlight. The newer ones also have what looks like a spot light/camera on a fold down mast on the drivers side roof of the firebody. Sorry no pics
