Details

Although this machine is often mistaken for a Fire Engine, it was in fact originally used on a Valiant Class Destroyer, where it was taken ashore in order to pump fresh water on board when in remote parts of the world. Similar Machines were used as fire engines as well as for drainage and irrigation work.
