The Dennis Rolls Royce fire engine, with its distinctive red body and white lettering, was a dual-purpose pump designed to provide both water and escape facilities for firefighters. Its powerful engine and pumping capabilities made it an essential asset for the London Fire Brigade during emergencies. This particular appliance, stationed at Euston Fire Station, is a testament to the bravery and dedication of the firefighters who operated it.
