PF instead of going to Old Tailem Town why not go to Sovereign Hill in Ballart as i went there in year 12 on a field trip and seen one of those horse drawn fire carts that they used in the gold mining days based in the recreated fire station

We still have our horse drawn fire cart with all the equipment on it still as well as the very old CABA set.

I think the first picture is a Pacesetter appliance use in the 1970.  It was seen as a bit radical as it had a Front mounted Darley PTO pump (you can see it under the bumper) and rear mounted engine.  Apparently they went like the clappers!

Correct,It was a Chubb Pacesetter and they did fly,however you will find one at Roxby now painted yellow and i think the other one has been robbed for parts
