Leyland Fire Engines 1909-1930

This volume is the one of three covering the fire appliances produced, mainly at Chorley, Lancashire by Leyland Motors Ltd. The book is a prequel to that written by the late Neil Steele in 2003 and covers the beginnings of fire appliance production, continuing up to the introduction of the LTB1 Lioness Six range, which is where Neil began his account. While the range of appliances produced took some time to become established Leyland soon became one of the two most successful and most respected manufacturers in the British Empire and beyond.
