EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) Shand Mason MFB steam pump and crew in action during one of the annual displays and reviews held at the Lambeth LFB headquarters in the 1930s. The Shand Mason MFB steam pump, with its intricately detailed brass fittings and horse-drawn design, was a popular feature of these events. The crew members, dressed in their period uniforms complete with brass helmets, add to the old-world charm of the scene. The use of horse-drawn steam fire pumps was a common practice in the early days of firefighting, and the LFB's annual displays provided a unique opportunity for the public to witness this historic appliance in action. The steam pump, which was not in regular use by this time, was a reminder of the firefighting methods of the past. The 1930s were an era of change for the London Fire Brigade, as motorized fire engines began to replace horse-drawn appliances. However, these displays allowed the brigade to honor its rich history and pay tribute to the brave men and horses that had served before the advent of modern firefighting equipment. This photograph, taken in 1937, offers a fascinating glimpse into the past, showcasing the dedication and pride of the London Fire Brigade's crew members as they worked together to operate the steam pump. The image is a testament to the importance of preserving history and the traditions that shape our communities.
