Description
Another shot from my trip to the Greater Manchseter Fire Brigade Museum. This is the rear of a 1939 500 GPM(gallons per minute) Dennis Trailer Fire Pump, purchased by the Carlisle Electricity Deparment for ARP service in the 1939/45 war. It was donated to Greater Manchester Fire Service by NORWEB(North Western Electicity Board) South Lanc's area. It was restored by NORWEB Transport Dept. 1978. My last upload the Spark Plug was on the engine of this pump.
Thanks for stopping by for a look and for any comments you care to make. A busy day yesterday and I am playing catch up, so sorry if I haven't got round to you yet.
May the sun shine down on you, where ever you are. Have a great weekend.

It made me laugh when I saw it! (I don't know why) A really interesting machine and an excellent photo, Jeff!
This is great! I love the way the back of this truck fairly bristles with all manner of useful and beautiful things. It has a sort of sci-fi feel to it ... I don't know how to explain that, but there you have it. Fabulous pic!
