Then it looks like they may have changed appliances since you left, or otherwise my information is lacking from what is available on the public internet.meg wrote:Right now? No.written_ficton wrote: @ Meg - you still at Roleystone Fire Station?

Re: W.A Fire Appliances
Roleystones appliances are both 2.4's. VFRS has a 2.4U BFS has a 2.4R.
Re: W.A Fire Appliances
Kinda off topic but the website said the 2.4R was based on the DEC HD. I thought HDs where 3.4s and the gang trucks were 2.4s?

You are quite right I'm used to the 3.4's in my old brigade - they look very similar!Wazza Y wrote:Roleystones appliances are both 2.4's. VFRS has a 2.4U BFS has a 2.4R.

Re: W.A Fire Appliances
Hi Guys,
Saw on Barrack Street this afternoon what looked like a longer version of a HSR Pump??
It was brand new - all in white with Clear Roof LED Lightbar with 2 FESA uniforms (one of which was driving). Had dealer plates on the back. All side and front LED emergency lights - Hose Reel and Pump section on the left hand side.
Looked impressive. It was following Perth 1st towards Northbridge - two front wheels and the rear had 4 (2 left and 2 right).
