If they're not in use, I was seeing things yesterday on the back of my lorry. :shock:
In the 5 years they've been operational, thay haven't been deployed once to my knowledge.
They were originaly the Operational Support Pods, which back then carried usefull firefighting gear, opposed to 125 GT suits.
Fire-17
when all the pods are no in use anymore what appliance will carry the hazmat gear ??

I asked PEG at Croyden that yesterday as they were swapping over 120 GTS's, they did'nt have an answer.
I'm going to e-mail the HEMP advisor tonight and see what his input will be.
There's no way I'm loading all of these onto the OSU everytime a chemical job comes along. :shock:
