EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph showcases an Emergency Tender from the Greater London Council-London Fire Brigade (GLC-LFB) fleet, specifically from Paddington fire station (A21). The image was captured in the late 1960s, around a decade after the GLC-LFB was formed on 1 April 1965. The Emergency Tender, a vital component of the enlarged London Fire Brigade's fleet, is depicted with its hoses coiled neatly on the side, ready for quick deployment. The Emergency Tender in the photograph is a previous London County Council-London Fire Brigade (LCC-LFB) style appliance. It is a testament to the evolution of firefighting equipment and the continuous improvements made to ensure the most effective response to emergencies. The vehicle, adorned with the iconic GLC-LFB insignia, is a powerful reminder of the important role these appliances played in safeguarding London during the 1960s. The Emergency Tender, often referred to as a 'laying tender,' was designed to support fire engines by transporting and laying out hoses at the scene of a fire. Its presence ensured that firefighters could focus on extinguishing the blaze, rather than wasting valuable time laying out hoses. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the history of the London Fire Brigade and the essential role of its appliances in protecting the city.
