Not sure about Perth, but Daglish 1st was in Midland today! Saw them pulling out of Midland gate as I was approaching to cross the road, didn't get an answer to my comment about them being way over here, but when I rode past Daglish station tonight on the way home there were 2 pumps in the garage.

Glad you saw it too WF - thought I was seeing things.. But you are right - Saw it yesterday morning at a DBA cnr St.Georges Tce and William Street - facing south.

Got extra pumps from work shops, and are using the spare crews from the relife pool or recalled extra crews to man the extra trucks. I do remember once a few summers ago when forrestdale was going of, they had
Perth 1st
Perth 2nd
Perth 3
Perth 4
Perth 5
And Perth 6

Also Rockingham 2nd. Armadale 2nd. And Guildford are at Perth Station,

I think they will be very happy with it. Almost done by he look of things.

They had the handover this weekend - they are now using it! The old Mazda was taken away to go to the training ground.

Country pumper?

sorry, should have written.... it is a country pump. CP16

I notice that TTL3 has been operating out of Perth Station (as Perth TTL) for the last few weeks. Does anyone know where CLP1 (Perth CLP) is? Or what has happened to it?

Heard a rumour that it is in workshops - but cannot confirm.

Collie is scheduled to get new CP next week.

Bunbury careers scheduled to get new UPH sometime in April so I hear....

enlighten us to what a UPH is?

UPH maybe UPHR as in Urban Pump Heavy Rescue?? otherwise I've got no clue.

Correct.

With work locations I cannot always get online, let alone this forum, so response may take a while at times.

The word is (Will be confirmed in due time) that it is abbreviated to UPH rather than UPHR. Like all things .... we wait and see what eventuates.

Collie have their new Country Pump (CP17 I am told) and learning how to use it this weekend.

Bunbury Career I am told will now not get their new UPH or UPHR (debate has started again on naming) until June or July.
