Автокөліктер мен көлік құралдары

Today I had the privilege to visit the RAF Museum of firefighting and meeting with Steve the owner of the wonderful collection. Hear his story in this video and the importance of enthusiasts who work endlessly to prevserve such important history. It was so overwhelming to see all the appliances in one place. We have more indepth footage coming soon on some of the appliances there so subscribe to keep updated.

    It's disappointing the museum is closed to the public. I would love to visit it.

    Brings back memories of my childhood, growing up on RAF bases with TACR, TACR2, Thorneycroft Nubian Majors, Scammels and the Alvis fire appliances.

    Fantastic video Lawrence, I hope they can get the backing they need. It would be sad to see all that history go to waste, it deserves to be preserved... Especially by such dedicated people.

    Back in the late 70s a friend of mine had a Bedford OY fire engine with Aldermaston on the side. Had a short drive of it (about 2 miles). Always wondered what happened to it.

    I Was a driver of a Dennis i was at the old fire station in the senter of chester. It was a great pump. Had a great crew of 3. The station was a very bad place to get out had big problems, the traffic was so bad. In the end traffic lights was put at each end of the road. Then it was bells at chester station. We got it to bells 🔔 going down 1 minute to be out and bules and 2 on. I drove l the pump like a nuter.

    Dave White he called it “I” bought 52 fire engines. When HE didn’t. He’s changed the title now. It would be epic to see him buy that many engines and repair them all, but he didn’t...
