Welcome! Thank you for coming to have a look at our "work in progress". We hope you appreciate our efforts and why we are undertaking this project, but remember, its definitely NOT FOR PROFIT and not a cheque book restoration.

This is all being done by retired LFB firemen and a few supporters who just want to keep this old lady alive and kicking.

"We are a group of retired London firemen that retain a passion for past times, the service we gave, and this fire appliance"

On Monday 19th April 2021. We said a final farewell to our original founder member and first chairman, Peter Russell.
​Peter was carried on his final journey on 240FLM exactly as he wished. Peter had driven the appliance on its very first outing at New Cross Fire Station in South London in April 1964 so it was fitting that he should be on board at the end of his last duty. His wife and daughter were also on board for this last journey from the funeral parlour to the crematorium in Stourport on Severn. North Worcestershire.

You may stand down now Peter and thank you for your service.

If you are a retired London Fire Brigade fireman who has any items suitable for our use, we would really appreciate you getting in touch to discuss what you have. It might  be a photograph, a memory, a second hand story or maybe a piece of equipment which you have had laying in the shed for 30 years, we would love to hear from you and it may well be that we can put you in touch with former colleagues.
