The Vjet ◊ 2024-09-04 16:56	I checked the rego, and according to a couple of sources this was may have been an F44 (F43’s F44’s and F48’s are externally identical to each other) Originally it was bright yellow when delivered new to Wallasey Fire Brigade, and one of two Dennis F series pump escapes delivered - other was an F43 registered JHF 107J. It got repainted in traditional red when Wallasey’s FB was amalgamated into the current Merseyside Brigade, also changed to a pump ladder since it was fitted a 13.5 triple-extension ladder rather than an escape, as seen here. Fireflash Delta 64 claims this to be an F43 and it’s sister to be an F48: http://www.fireflash-delta64.co.uk/wallaseyarch.html Fire Engine photos indicates its sister appliance to be an F43 and the above an F44: https://www.fire-engine-photos.com/picture/number20625.asp
