  • Description

    The professional fire service in Breslau (now Wroclaw in Poland) puts into service the first turntable ladder fitted to a petrol-engined Daimler chassis. This makes it Germany's first fire department to own a fire-fighting fleet made up purely of petrol-engined vehicles. All three vehicles (motorised fire pump, turntable ladder and implement carrier) feature 28/32 hp chassis built at Daimler-Marienfelde.
