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 :-D

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
