We are pleased to announce two new arrivals at the museum. Firstly, we now have a new Volvo Saxon FL250 fire engine to replace the old Dodge fire engine which had been with the museum for many years. This was one of most popular exhibits but unfortuately the bodywork deterioration and rust had become too much so we had to look for a replacement. The new Volvo fire engine had been in service with Greater Manchester Fire Service since 2003 but they have now renewed their fleet so we are really pleased that MW52UDV has come to us. It’s in great condition and we hope to make it available for visitors to clamber into shortly.
The second new arrival is a London Taxi which is famous around the world for it’s unique design.
