EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the moment of arrival at Lambeth Workshops of a damaged NFS (London Region) fire engine, numbered 36 A 1, following extensive damage caused during a bombing raid in World War II. The Shoreditch fire station's pump escape, a vital piece of firefighting equipment, is seen here after being blasted by a bomb in 1942. The image offers a poignant reminder of the destructive impact of air raids on London during the war, and the unwavering commitment of the fire brigade to continue their essential work despite the danger. The 2nd World War was a pivotal period in the history of the London Fire Brigade, with firefighters facing numerous challenges as they worked tirelessly to protect homes and businesses from the devastating effects of bombing. This damaged engine, now a relic of that era, stands as a testament to their bravery and resilience. The photograph, taken in the 1940s, provides a powerful visual representation of the wartime transport and the damage inflicted upon it.
