[@randomtransportguyx4397]

YEET

[@8834]

I bet this is why you don’t see these types of buses anymore.

[@taylors2106]

No one probably realised that the firefighters were wearing outdated kit. The old red-ish coloured gear was phased out in 2010 or so, and here it is still present in 2014. Must’ve taken a long time for the South London fire crews to receive it then. Dunno. And the engines have no callsign or station markings. A lot of stuff missing here.

[@connorhutchings5745]

This is because its a contingency emergency team for the fire service

[@taylors2106]

It would explain why the appliances had no station markings or callsigns on

[@Great_WesternTVFan]

I know it has air

[@lucatrifan2797]

The heat around the tyre causes the air inside to expand. If it expands too much the tyre cannot hold it in and it explodes.
