Australian Rigs

[Guest]

We don't have hose beds, but we do run some 38mm and 50mm lines flaked in trays, with TFT branches ready to go, also some 64mm hose for supply. Otherwise everything else is in dutch rolls like the Europeans, we are tending to lean more towards the british way of doing things, as that is where our first settlers came from and they brought their techniques and construction methods with them. but having said that we have a lot of American influence in the bodies, with mostly mid mount pumps, deck guns, etc.



One thing that has dissapeared altogether is the ladder trucks, everything is BRONTO BRONTO BRONTO now. They are a good machine, but sooooo slow to set up !



Oh and don't choke on your dinner, but we mostly used booster reels for first attack.......
