EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph from the 1930s, the newly commissioned Massey Shaw fireboat, moored at its Blackfriars river station on the Victoria Embankment, showcases its impressive pumping capacity to a crowd of onlookers. The fireboat, an essential appliance in London Fire Brigade's fleet, is a testament to the advanced firefighting technology of the era. The eight monitors at work on the Massey Shaw's deck are in full operation, discharging a vast amount of water, at high pressure, into the Thames. The powerful pumps onboard the vessel are capable of delivering an impressive volume of water to quell even the most formidable fires. The hoses, coiled neatly on the deck, are ready for immediate use, while the crew members, dressed in their distinctive uniforms, stand by, alert and focused. The spectators gathered on the Embankment above, a mix of Londoners and tourists, watch in awe as the fireboat puts its capabilities on display. The jet of water, shooting high into the air, is a sight to behold, a reminder of the vital role that the fire service plays in protecting the city. The Massey Shaw fireboat, with its impressive pumping power and dedicated crew, is a symbol of the London Fire Brigade's unwavering commitment to keeping the city safe. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the importance of fireboats and their crews in the history of London's firefighting services.
