Haddenham Steam Rally
 
'Ely Fire Brigade' a steam fire engine built by Shand Mason in 1912. Still owned by Ely Fire Brigade, the engine is on loan to Prickwillow Engine Museum, who over the past 2 years, have returned it to steamable condition. A few fittings are still required before it will be capable of pumping water.
It made it's public debut, in steam, at the 39th Haddenham Steam Rally 2012.

Fantastic things steam FP"s, this one must have remained in service quite late as she is on penumatics unless of course were these fitted during preservation?

Nice looking machine.

The pneumatics are thought to have been fitted in the 1930's when the towing vehicle was a local lorry.
