Take the bus, they said the safest way to travel, I beg to differ after the last 24 hours..

A few photos from one of my penultimate visits of Autumn 2025 around @WestSussexFire to see the smart and varied fleet. As always wonderful friendly crews and some decent weather. Seen here is the #TRU Technical Rescue Unit from #Worthing and the new WrC from #Petworth 🚒👍

Seen at #BigginHill fire station in the summer shortly before responding to a large grass fire in the Orpington area. The #IvecoDaily bodied by #EmergencyOne and the #Isuzu pickup was on demo running as a #wildfire vehicle 🚒 #LFB @EOneUKLtd @IVECOUK @Isuzuuk

Amazing few days of autumn sun in #Dublin 🇮🇪 meeting the friendliest of #firefighters from @DubFireBrigade .. seized the opportunity to snap the striking @FireHpmp bodied TRU Tunnel Response Unit, and the ex @LondonFire DAF Water Carrier and ex @LeicsFireRescue Scania RP 🚒🔥

This ex #LFB 2007 Mercedes Atego Rescue Tender (FRU) is one of two that have been purchased by @DubFireBrigade following an extensive refurb. This appliance with bodywork by #TVAC is now stationed at Dolphins Barn fire station in #Dublin #Ireland 🇮🇪🚒 @LondonFire @MercedesBenzUK

A busy #Halloween for C Watch last night. A record number of 516 EMS calls were processed by our control room, the highest number recorded for Halloween night in 21 years. Heavy rainfall and the removal of bonfire stockpile material by Local Authorities led to a decrease in Halloween related fire calls. Thankfully no firefighters were injured in the course of their duties, however some crews did experience anti social behaviour. Thanks to all who followed our live map.

Seeing red never looked so good 🔥 Massive thanks to Red Watch at Ipswich East and in Control for taking part in filming with ITV Anglia earlier today to showcase how we respond to emergency calls. Everyone did a brilliant job! 📺 They'll be on ITV Anglia tonight at 18:00.

Meet Tom Kendle from #Basildon fire station in #Essex 🚒 Tom is Running the London landmarks half marathon and the London marathon in April, both the 13.1 and 26.2 miles run in full #firefighting PPE and breathing apparatus to support @samaritans 👍 ⬇️ justgiving.com/page/tom-kendl…

@129Stu Don’t think there are any plans currently this one seems to be the more reliable of the two despite being much older from what the crew were saying

@EasternFirePics @shropsfire @EOneUKLtd @ScaniaGroup When ALP due to be replaced ?

Seen during a recent visit to @shropsfire here is Part One with a appliances snapped at #Telford and #Shrewsbury 🚒 the most friendliest reception from White Watch crews and some incredible photos achieved including the lastest @EOneUKLtd bodied Rescue Pumps from @ScaniaGroup 👍

Something a little different to share! I was lucky enough to work at the Royal International Air Tattoo #RIAT #riat2025 #RIAT25 .. and although i am fairly new to aircraft photography i am stoked with the results👍 Thanks to #FUJIFILM #nikon and #sigma for the lens trials!

Been a bit quiet on here of late but back at it. I had a great visit to @Norfolkfire today with the Fire Brigade Society. Weather was hit and miss but got some great photos thanks to the Norfolk crews.

Lancashire Fire & Rescue have recently placed 2 EOne Scorpions into service at #StAnnes & #Lancaster fire stations. These appliances are based on a Volvo FE chassis with EmergencyOne bodywork #emergencyone #volvo #volvofe #Lancashire 🚒 @LancashireFire @EOneUKLtd @VolvoTrucksUK

@Dylanscall1 @ScaniaGroup @EOneUKLtd As i am told by the crews this will replace their second pump and alp

@EasternFirePics @MerseyFire @ScaniaGroup @EOneUKLtd Does this replace any of the current “ Aerial “ appliances or just an additional height capability?

Fantastic morning with T&D and the crew of #southport fire station 🚒 training is now underway with their new Scania P320 / Emergency One Scorpion which joins the @MerseyFire fleet and will be operational in September. #Scania #EmergencyOne #Scorpion 🚒 @ScaniaGroup @EOneUKLtd

@Fireflash44 @ScaniaGroup @EOneUKLtd Hello, was originally going to St Helens but now has been reallocated to Southport 👍

Awesome day with @WarksFireRescue crews photographing the latest generation of Volvo FL pumps. The new fleet are the first of their kind in the #UK #unitedkingdom with bodywork by Emergency One.. Great job 👏 @VolvoTrucksUK 🚒 @EOneUKLtd 👍 #warwickshire #volvofl #emergencyone

Massive thanks to the lovely crews @lancaster_fire for showing us the brand new @EOneUKLtd Scorpion and letting us get some snaps!

A nice selection of #emergencyone appliances from across the past few decades 🚒 all seen recently at #bassingstoke & #rushmoor stations including a 2005 Volvo FLH reserve and the latest 2025 Rescue Pump. Plus a lovely refurb of the wildfire vehicle @VolvoTrucksUK 🚒 @EOneUKLtd

Well, I DO like THIS retro look out of Washington DC! And who doesn't wish they had a Seagrave or two in their fleet...
