Interschutz 2015 - Big Dave - 07-01-2015

Held every 5 years, Interschutz is an international display of fire apparatus.  This year's exhibit in Hannover, Germany attracted 1,500 exhibitors from 51 countries.  Here are some of my images from the event.  

The first image is of a tunnel rescue vehicle for the Mont Blanc Tunnel Company.  Built by BAI on a MAN chassis, it carreis 12,150 litres of water and 1,000 litres of foam.  It has 3 driving and 3 steering axles to enable it to operate in the tunnel.
