EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) Volvo Saxon pump ladder stands proudly at its base station in Croydon, which once served as the Southern Command headquarters. The Volvo Saxon, a versatile fire engine appliance, is adorned with the iconic red and yellow livery of the London Fire Brigade. Atop the engine, a roof ladder is raised, ready for action. The side locker doors of the Saxon are thrown wide open, revealing an extensive range of equipment that firefighters must be fully conversant with. The interior of the appliance is a symphony of hoses, tools, and life-saving apparatus, all meticulously arranged and easily accessible. This image, taken in the 1990s, offers a glimpse into the transport and logistics of the London Fire Brigade during that era. The Volvo Saxon pump ladder was a vital component of the brigade's fleet, designed to provide firefighters with the necessary tools to tackle high-rise fires and other emergencies. The London Fire Brigade's fleet of appliances, including the Volvo Saxon pump ladder, played a crucial role in keeping the city safe during the 1990s. This photograph is a testament to the dedication and professionalism of the firefighters who operated these vehicles and the importance of their role in the community. This photograph is courtesy of the Mary Evans Picture Library and was taken in 1993. It is a fascinating snapshot of firefighting in London during the 1990s and a reminder of the vital role that fire engines and their crews play in our daily lives.
