Parkerville VBFB - 3.4U and LT
Stoneville VBFB - 2x LT's
Chidlow VBFB also have a 3.4R in yellow as well as LT which is white.
Wooroloo VBFB - I think a LT and a 3.4R
Mundaring VFRS - I think a 3.4U and 2 LTs (one LT is red, the other white. The 3.4 is red)
The above are all Mundaring shire (as well as Mt Helena, Sawyers, Darlington et al) and are white unless otherwise described!
There's an Inkpen VBF brigade in Northam but I don't recall what vehicles they have.
There's also a Beejording VBF brigade in Toodyay that I believe has a 2.4 as their only unit.
Did Kalamunda BFB lose a LT when they got the 1.4?
HTH!

Thanks Meg. I have a list of all BFB/VFRS/SES/VES/VFS brigades here in the Midlands/Goldfields District and some have detail (limited and unsure on its accuracy) - it's just a matter of getting some spare time to enter the data.meg wrote:Parkerville VBFB - 3.4U and LT

Harrys probably retired by now.just thought I'd ask see if he was still around.Sounds like they have expaned the trucks they only had three when I was there.And yes they where red except the big main tender.They where just changing them when we left.To that horrible lime green colour.madmikey wrote:used to be up there, been a couple of years since I left now.Hey Madmikey,You from Tom Price hey!!Was up there as well.Left in 87 dad was one of two GP's up there.I remember I used to give the firies plenty of fire practice when I was there.

Gosnells
Hi there I noticed no Gosnells bfs appliances on your list so if you want them then here they are.Gosnells have two light tankers numbered one and two,a 2.4,a 7.2 and an icv.all the call signs go the same way eg Gosnells 7.2 or 2.4 or light tanker 1/2 or icv.
