Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Blues and Twos on Ballards Lane London Fire Brigade DPL1192 blasts along Ballards Lane at speed towards Tally Ho and North Finchley. I believe this is a training run - this appliance is allocated to LFB's Finchley Driving School. Note - no ladders and no station plates. Finchley's active appliances carry the station name in the slot between the doors and an A39 plate in the slot at the rear of the cab - A391 or A392 for the Pump Ladder and the Pump respectively.
DPL1192 is an example of a Dual-purpose Pump Ladder. The DPL is the most common type of appliance in London. These are the standard pumps used for attending all incidents, and are known elsewhere as pumps or water tenders. A large water tank is fitted to the vehicles for firefighting, along with numerous hoses, rescue gear and other specialised equipment. All stations in London have at least one DPL with many having two. There are two types of DPL, a Pump Ladder and a Pump. A pump ladder carries a 13.5m ladder, whilst pumps have a 9m ladder. Stations with only one DPL will have a Pump Ladder carrying both a 13.5m and 9m ladder. This information is from http://www.lfbsite.com/features/types.html where details of the varieties of appliances in use with the London Fire Brigade can be found. |
