I don't know what this is but it is a very interesting conversion of an older horse-drawn steam fire pump. The style of the front fenders would suggest a date of about 1905. |

Neither do I, but for some reason the wide radiator suggested Napier to me ... pity IMDb isn't helpful about filming locations; if we knew where this museum was, and it had a website, it might tell us. (citsa  do you have any ideas?) |

Good idea, Chris. I found that it has to be the James Hall Museum of Transport in Johannesburg. But their website is under construction... |

![[Image: james-hall-museum-of.jpg]](http://pics.imcdb.org/558/james-hall-museum-of.jpg) The radiator shows "Merryweather London" - James Hall Museum of Transport Johannesburg. Looking to see if more is to be found on other websites. Vehicle listed here /vehicle_983267-Merryweather-Fire-Engine-1910.html -- Last edit: 2016-12-04 19:37:21 |
