NSW Fire Brigade - Scania

Appliances 

 

The NSW Fire Brigade decided to use a Scania vehicle as a more modern fire appliance than the International appliances elsewhere on this site and can be commonly seen in the Sydney Metropolitan area in Aerial Ladder Platform, Rescue/Pumper and Pumper configurations.
