Healz, we have a police car thread to so feel free to take photos and post.

Definately!

I like seeing the Police Fire vehicles from everyone else's neck of the woods!

Here's the Police Car thread: http://www.ww2aircraft.net/forum/off-topic-misc/police-cars-21244.html

I stopped by the firehouse this afternoon and it was opened up so I asked if I could shoot some pictures. Here's what I ended up with. Please enjoy.

Thanks guys. I am suppose to do some more shots for some of the guys at the fire station in a week or so.

All of these images come from the blog of a bloke called Aaron Coghill. Presumably he took these at a major bushfire emergency in 2004 with the majority being Rural Fire Brigades from various places.

Australia is a dry continent and unfortunately we are swinging into a dry period again, where the grass is dying. Very soon without decent rain our fire danger could creep into being catastrophic. All it takes at the moment is a misplaced coke bottle, or a cigarette to ignite the grass, let along arson. There was a big grass fire out at Dundathu in Queensland recently that they had either 22 people or vehicles, not sure which responding to. They reckon it could have been deliberately lit by someone...

More Australian Rural Fire Brigade Vehicles from various places mostly Queensland continued. These come from the same blog as the ones up above.

Okay last one of the rurals from the same blog and then some urban ones that are there...
I have included a picture of one of the signs that is used to indicate the fire danger rating.
It may be familiar to some of you. I think they have now added a higher top rating to the
scale...

Okay, now for some of the air support in Bushfire fighting operations that came from the same blog.

Nowhere really to post these, so they can get shifted later, but here are some ambulance photos from the same blog by Aaron Coghill...
