The actual pump (for the water) runs off of the engine for the appliance.. There is a leaver in the cab that disengages the engine from the drive shaft and engages it to the pump motor.. Therefore the engine is constantly running on the fire ground to run the pump.. At long protracted incidents like this where the engine is going to be running for a considerable time the bonnet is opened to stop the engine over heating

thepymes A factory that size must have its own Emergency Response Team or fire team or at the least a lot of security. The company should have had people who knew what was going on (and in radio contact with each other) posted at the various entrances to direct the emergency services to the appropriate area. This is basic stuff and the company has failed here not the emergency services.

@@roddyk05 Yes, Cadburys do have a fire team who patrol round the factory site in a Fiesta! However, the Social Club isn't on the factory site and doesn't belong to Mondelez. It is off a public road (Bournville Lane) opposite the factory. It should have been clear from the appliance MDT that they needed to turn down Bournville Lane and not into the clearly sign posted Cadbury World which is a private road off Linden Road. My guess is that they misread the MDT and turned off Linden Road too early (Bournville Road is the next left beyond the beautiful Cadbury cricket ground). To be fair I'm pretty sure it will have been appliances from out of the area and NOT the crews from Selly Oak or Northfield (Kings Norton would have approached from the other direction) but someone still owes the station a 'cake run' before their next shift! :0D
