MAKE PUMPS 6
CHEMICAL FIRE.
ASTROPOL
WETHERAL CLOSE, HINDLEY GREEN,
17 MAY 2011.

This was an incident I passed on my way home from Leigh T.S.C.   When I arrived there were 4 pumps and the OSU in attendance.  Very soon it went to MP6 plus the EPU and support pump also attended from Bury.   Obviously because it was a chemical incident, I had to rely very much on my zoom lens for pictures of the incident itself, and as will be seen below, only large amounts of smoke were visible.
 
 

Visible in this picture was MV54AYW the OSU from Atherton and Wigan pump MF51EXM.

PM038 WX54VKG with the E.P.U. from Bury.

The E.P.U. being made ready for use.

Support pump for the E.P.U. was PO60KWY also from Bury.
