Those Dennis fire engines was the best in the service. And ive spent many years inside one before Leyland and Volvo took over the service. Ive got a lot of great memories over the years I served

Don't forget the Saxon rust buckets!!

@@simonmaverick9201 I wasn't a lover of the Volvo mainly because not much room to change when going on a shout. For me the Dennis rs fire engine will 've the best because that's the one I spent more time in before promotions came along.

God bless the fire service

This is the fire service at its core here, sometimes there's no time or need for specialist equipment or fancy tools, just brave people digging through the muck with bare hands and brute strength to free a trapped man 👨‍🚒👩‍🚒🚒👏👏👏

This was done buy purpose.
Far worse they presented the 101 how to get killed as a firefighter
