[RARE] London Fire Brigade Operational Support Unit + Pump Ladder - A39A A391 Finchley Turnout

Finchley's OSU and support pump can be seen turning out to reports of a Makes Pump 10 fire, "Commercial structure, well alight" on Enfield's ground.
The first call was received at 1509 and the fire was under control at 1604. LFB control took 48 calls to the incident, due to the large amount of smoke. The cause of the fire was "improper disposal of smoking materials". Three bins, three van and surrounding area of the car park were destroyed by fire and smoke.

Awesome! Nice bit of noise out the bays. Have you seen the video of the old OSU responding?

[@LondonEmergency999]

Cheers! The Volvo? Yes.

[@maretosevska1354]

which volvo??????

[@CobraEmergency]

Finchley used to have a Volvo as the OSU. Beasty!

[@LondonEmergency999]

@@CobraEmergency Yep. I would describe it as a prime mover rather than an OSU, it had multiple pods such as BA, Hose laying, damage control and hazmat. Do love tho Volvos!
They did also have a Merc Actros BFU and Atego HLU after the Volvos but they were moved.

@@LondonEmergency999 Oh yes I seem to remember seeing a video of the BFU responding. If anything I may be confusing it for the OSU. Would have been great to have seen those Volvos - none left anymore! Last Volvos left service in 2020; unless there's some I don't know about. 👀
