EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the LCC-MFB Shand Mason steamer, a powerful two-cylinder model, standing proudly at Manchester Square Fire Station in the late 1890s. The Shand Mason steamer was a vital component of the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) firefighting equipment, renowned for its ability to provide steam quickly and efficiently. Unlike its predecessors, this model featured a small gas ring to keep the water in the boiler warm, ensuring that the engine could be ready to produce steam within a few minutes after a turnout. The fire was carefully laid in the firebox, ready to provide the necessary steam power to operate the pumps and hoses. The steamer is shown in its bay at the fire station, surrounded by other essential firefighting equipment, including horses and other appliances. The Victorian-era shed in the background houses more engines and equipment, ready for deployment at a moment's notice. The Shand Mason steamer was an integral part of London's firefighting transport system, and its presence at Manchester Square Fire Station was a testament to the LFB's commitment to providing the best possible response to emergencies. The steamer's powerful steam engine and quick turnout time made it an indispensable tool in the fight against fires in the densely populated and rapidly developing city of London during the late 1800s. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, providing a unique insight into the technology and equipment used by the London Fire Brigade during the Victorian era. The Shand Mason steamer and its crew stood ready to protect the people of London, demonstrating the bravery and dedication of the firefighters who served their community.
