Sub-station with taxis and crews, WW2
A typical London Fire Brigade sub-station watch and their equipment. Taxis were used as makeshift fire engines which towed trailer pumps. Ladders were carried on top of the taxi and hose carried in the luggage compartment. Two thousand taxis were brought into service and deployed around London and its suburbs during WW2
