THe Hellenic Fire Service in action: Sunday morning and I was on my way to buy a coffee when I noticed our local patrol fire engine (ΠΣ 3148) responding to a suspected domestic fire at 24, Tenedoy street. Fortunately I was carrying my pocket camera on my belt, so I managed to capture some action.

This small Type A fire engine is a Mercedes-Benz Vario 815D with a capacity of 1000 lit. of water. The Greek Fire Service often deploys type A fire engines to patrol in urban sectors away from fire stations, so they can arrive quickly at the site of a fire. (DSCN0067)
