EDITORS COMMENTS
This vintage photograph captures the London Fire Brigade's (LFB) 100-foot turntable ladder (TL) at its headquarters station in Lambeth, SE1, during the 1950s or 1960s. The open-type TL in the image is a rare example of an AEC/Magirus all-steel design, featuring a turntable that enabled the ladder to rotate 360 degrees, providing maximum flexibility in reaching high-rise buildings or other hard-to-reach areas. Despite being kept as spare appliances during this era, these TLs, including this one, were still actively used to respond to fires and attend emergency calls. The inclusion of their own fire pumps made them self-sufficient, allowing them to operate independently without relying on external water sources. The London Fire Brigade's fleet of TLs, such as this one, were a vital part of the firefighting infrastructure during the 1950s and early 1960s. The AEC/Magirus TLs, with their robust design and versatile capabilities, were a testament to the engineering prowess of the time. This photograph offers a fascinating glimpse into the history of the London Fire Brigade and the firefighting appliances of the past. The TL in the image, with its distinctive features and iconic design, serves as a reminder of the essential role these vehicles played in protecting the city and its residents.
