EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a GLC-LFB (Greater London Council-London Fire Brigade) Saxon Dodge turntable ladder from the 1980s. The 30-metre (100-foot) ladder is an essential piece of firefighting equipment, capable of reaching great heights to access fires in multi-storey buildings. In this image, the outrigger jacks have been deployed, providing the necessary stability to the ladder when in use. The Saxon Dodge turntable ladder, with its distinctive red colour and imposing presence, is a quintessential symbol of the London Fire Brigade's commitment to public safety. The vehicle, adorned with the LFB insignia, is a testament to the bravery and professionalism of the firefighters who operate it. The turntable ladder, an appliance that has been a staple of fire services since the late 19th century, is a versatile piece of equipment. It can be used not only for firefighting but also for rescues, searches, and even as a platform for aerial observations. The 1980s saw the introduction of many advanced features to these ladders, including hydraulic systems for easier deployment and retrieval. The photograph, taken in the 1980s, captures the essence of the era, with the Saxon Dodge ladder standing proudly against a backdrop of urban London. The image is a reminder of the vital role that fire engines and their crews play in protecting communities and ensuring public safety. This photograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, is a must-have for anyone interested in firefighting, emergency services, or the history of transportation equipment. It is a unique glimpse into the past, offering a fascinating insight into the tools and techniques used by the London Fire Brigade during the 1980s.
