EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases the LCC-LFB (London County Council-London Fire Brigade) Leyland Metz 100-foot turntable ladder, affectionately known as Lambeth's (D61), on display in a park during the 1950s. The vintage firefighting vehicle, manufactured by Leyland Motors and designed by Metz, is a testament to the advanced technology and engineering of the era. The turntable ladder, with its distinctive red and yellow livery, is fully extended, displaying its impressive height and reach. The hose line, coiled and ready for use, lies gracefully over the side of the extending ladders. In this instance, the turntable ladder functions as a water tower, providing an ample water supply for firefighting operations. The London Fire Brigade, established in 1865, was one of the earliest organized fire services in the world. The addition of the Leyland Metz turntable ladder to their fleet represented a significant advancement in their firefighting capabilities. These vehicles were renowned for their versatility, as they could not only be used for reaching great heights to rescue people or extinguish fires but also as water towers to supply water to fire hydrants or hose reels during incidents where there was no nearby water source. The 1950s marked a period of innovation and progress for the London Fire Brigade, as they continued to adapt and improve their equipment to better serve the community. This photograph is a fascinating glimpse into the past, offering a unique perspective on the history of firefighting in London during the mid-20th century.
