EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three impressive fire station appliances from Greenwich, London. The picture was taken on Blackheath, a serene location in Southeast London. In the foreground, we can see two striking Volvo Saxon dual-purpose diesel fire engines, each serving a unique firefighting role. One of them is equipped with a pump-ladder while the other operates as a pump alone. These powerful vehicles are painted in vibrant red and yellow colors that symbolize their commitment to emergency response. On the left side of the frame stands an imposing Simon Snorkel hydraulic platform, adding another layer of versatility to this firefighting fleet. This specialized vehicle allows firefighters to reach great heights swiftly and efficiently during rescue operations or when battling fires in tall structures. The image captures these remarkable machines against the backdrop of lush green grass on Blackheath, creating a visually stunning contrast between nature's tranquility and man-made powerhouses designed for public safety. Dating back to 1997, this photograph takes us back to the 90s era when these cutting-edge appliances were at the forefront of modern firefighting technology. It serves as a testament to the dedication and professionalism exhibited by London Fire Brigade personnel stationed at Greenwich Fire Station. This print is part of Mary Evans Prints Online collection curated by Mary Evans Picture Library – an invaluable resource showcasing historical moments captured through photography.
