EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph taken outside the London Fire Brigade (LFB) headquarters in Southwark Bridge Road, SE1, on 14 September 1935, learner firefighter drivers put their skills to the test as they go head to head with a number 12 tram on a London street. The motorised Dennis fire engine, adorned with an L-plate on the front, showcases the Brigade's commitment to training the next generation of firefighters in the art of firefighting and navigating the bustling streets of London. The scene is set against the backdrop of the iconic horse-drawn fire carts, a nod to the Brigade's rich history, which still grace the station's grounds. The contrast between the old and the new is a testament to the evolution of firefighting vehicles and the progression from horse-drawn carts to motorised appliances. The number 12 tram, a common sight on the streets of London during the 1930s, presents a formidable challenge for the learner drivers. The tram's large size and the need to give way to it while maneuvering the fire engine make this training exercise a true test of their driving abilities. The learner drivers can be seen intently focusing on the task at hand, with one man cranking the handle and the other at the wheel, ready to take control. Their determination and concentration are evident, as they practice the essential skills required to become proficient firefighter drivers. This photograph offers a unique glimpse into the past, showcasing the LFB's commitment to training its drivers and the evolution of firefighting vehicles on the streets of London during the 1930s.
