LCC-MFB Escape cart at Southwark HQ
Escape cart in the yard of Southwark HQ. Prior to this time, the 50 foot wheeled escape ladders were pushed to fires. Around 1890 the Chief Officer, Captain Wells, introduced the horse drawn escape cart and reorganised the London brigade so that at any time of day or night a horsed escape, with a properly trained crew, would be immediately ready to answer a call for help
