First introduced into the UK by Merryweather of Greenwich in 1899, by 1907 21 Fire Kings were in operational use around the country, including the London Fire Brigade. Seen here is a modified Fire King, stationed at Whitefriars fire station in the City of London. The self-propelled Fire King could travel at speeds of 20-30mph but was unable to negotiate a significant gradient without stopping to build a sufficient head of steam
