EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) D61 ET Crew from Lambeth Fire Station, proudly displaying and demonstrating the extensive range of equipment and gear carried on their LCC-LFB A Class Emergency Tender, which was in service from the early 1950s until the 1960s. The tender, a crucial component of London's firefighting fleet during this period, was equipped with a built-in electrical generator, enabling the tender to provide power to pumps and other equipment at the scene of a fire. The firemen, dressed in their protective clothing and breathing apparatus, are shown examining and testing various tools and gadgets stored on the tender. The image provides a fascinating glimpse into the firefighting methods and equipment used during the 1950s. The A Class Emergency Tender was an essential part of the LFB's transport fleet, designed to quickly and efficiently respond to emergencies and provide vital resources to firefighters on the scene. The tender's advanced electrical generator was a significant innovation in firefighting technology, allowing the crew to operate pumps and other equipment without the need for external power sources. This increased the effectiveness and efficiency of the firefighting efforts, making a significant difference in the outcome of fires during this era. The D61 ET Crew's demonstration of their equipment and gear underscores the importance of training and preparation in the field of firefighting. The firemen were well-equipped to handle any situation they might encounter, ensuring the safety and wellbeing of the London community. This photograph is a testament to the dedication and professionalism of the LFB during the 1950s and serves as a reminder of the crucial role that firefighters and their equipment play in protecting our communities from fire and other emergencies.
