cool good to see that Tammin has a decent shed etc for all their vehicles etc. I wish that'd happen more often for everyone else.

Vehicles? Tammin VFRS only have a 2.4U - the other side of the shed is for local ambulance.

That's alright I didn't specifically same for their fire trucks...I'm surprised only a 2.4 I would have expected a Light tanker as well.

Wouldn't be much call for it out that way.. and I'd imagine road rescue in the area would be looked after by Kellerberrin and perhaps Cunderdin VFRS?

Fastlane is right - Kella gets the majority of calls for that area. Tammin is a Volunteer Fire Servce - FRS and BFS combined. I hear that they would get very few calls - a year's worth could be counted on one hand. They also struggle for active Members.

They had a house fire last month just around the corner from the station (mind you, in Tammin everything is 'just around the corner').

Wundowie have a 2.4U, a LT (Landrover) and a rescue trailer.
Last info I have says that Bakers Hill has a LT and 2.4.
