Firefighters with one of the first emergency tenders
Firefighters and a van with their equipment laid out. Four of the firefighters are wearing proto-breathing apparatus. In 1929 the Brigade introduced the first enclosed emergency tender to respond to large fires where breathing apparatus was needed, together with the first non-fire emergencies, including car and rail crashes and various mechanical accidents and human tragedy. The new emergency tenders, built upon a Dennis chassis and based in Lambeth and Clerkenwell, were travelling workshops, the forerunners of todays modern fire service rescue tenders in use through the British Fire Service
