It is going to make things hard when barker rescue is committed to an mva the other side of meadows supporting fellow group brigades and something happens in mt barker township and the mt barker brigade cannot get the support back from the next pumper in the group.

Every other brigade has the same issue mate, if ya primary pumper is out at a RCR or Hazmat....Simple solution...Call another brigade....the closest and most appropriate.

And that would be.... Murray Bridge or Glen Osmond ?   :evil:  :-D

It is not about how much water was used at the car fire, standard response for the crews at mt barker, 2 trucks on all calls in their primary area, since the primary pumper failed on this job they sent back up from their station since they had crew, going out of their area for a "report" of car fire could end up in being anything so back up was coming since the primary brigade failed, i don't see the problem with this, if anything it shows a quality of service being provided and maybe highlighting to some people in higher places that a 2nd pumper should return to mt barker and is not required in some other place just down the street. It is going to make things hard when barker rescue is committed to an mva the other side of meadows supporting fellow group brigades and something happens in mt barker township and the mt barker brigade cannot get the support back from the next pumper in the group.

So committing one truck at an MVA leaves the township uncovered, but committing 2 trucks to a car fire is providing a quality of service to the community? :P
Only kidding mate, I understand where you're coming from...

they must just all have jobs within the response area?   strange ey...

A more believeable reason, would be minimal crewing of appliances (4 only)?

They do that for B Shift so i would imagine it carries through?  But why not - 4 crew is sufficient at 99% of jobs and if you need more there is 2 more trucks at barker plus littlehampton only 5 mins down the road.

The real secret is the centrelink office and the high proportion of Housing Commission properties in the area. ;)

More brigades would be able to crew two trucks during the day if they got smart about their allocation of crew. Rather than throwing 6 on the one truck and having two at the station doing nothing, send 4 and 4. Really simple...

Finally!! Thats the best planned appliance ive seen for the CFS...it simply looks practical in every sense! 

Awesome work guys for removing the Taxi Stripe look :D   10/10 for the reflective stripe pattern.   I can see it being *very* effective for the times you are out on the freeway particularly in winter.

Any dimensions on the Midship Locker? Im particularly interested in the Depth.

Good work!    I like the name of the appliance  "Urban Rural Interface Appliance"  :-D

Mid locker is approx 2100mm wide, and 670mm deep, however it is partially a through locker at the front.

Are the CABA's still in the cab?

Hi All,

vehicle will have ability to have pump & roll by an aux pump positioned in the drivers side rear lower locker (below hose reel). There will be 3 CABA in cab, 1 being the officer and 2 in the back (next to the doors) with a benchin the middle to be able to carry a crew of 6 total. The main part of the through locker is to be able to carry a ferno 71 litter without putting it on the roof etc... There should be around 6 cubes of locker space at this stage....

Not only will it have pump and roll but the auxilary pump is an absolute ball breaker 1.5 AGE Darley coupled to a 18Hp briggs and Stratton which delivers to the hosereels and the "HALO" cab protection system.

The pump is fitted with an "in Cab" remote start and manual activation valve for the "halo" which basically means that the halo system can be activated at any time without leaving the cab.

The locker volume is almost 7.5 cubes.
