EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases a new diesel dual-purpose appliance from the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) fleet, specifically from D60 Clapham fire station. The diesel-powered appliance, which was common during the 1960s, is a significant development in firefighting vehicles as it provides enclosed accommodation for the firefighting crew. The image captures the appliance before its hosereel tubing has been fitted. Diesel dual-purpose appliances were a crucial addition to the LFB's fleet as they offered both pumping and ladder capabilities, making them versatile in various firefighting scenarios. The enclosed crew compartment was an essential feature, providing protection from the elements and enhancing the safety of the firefighters. The London Fire Brigade's fleet underwent significant modernization during the post-war period, with diesel dual-purpose appliances like this one becoming a common sight on the streets of London. The introduction of these vehicles marked a turning point in firefighting capabilities, allowing for more efficient and effective responses to emergencies. This particular appliance, D60 from Clapham station, is a testament to the advancements made in firefighting technology during the 1960s. The hosereel tubing, which would have been a crucial component of the appliance, has yet to be fitted in this image, but it would have further enhanced the vehicle's capabilities, allowing for greater reach and flexibility in firefighting situations.
