Volvo N657YNC was photographed during its tilt test before entering service.
This was the only Volvo pumping appliance within GMF&RS to be fitted with full air suspension front and rear,
a variant that is believed never to have been repeated for any other UK brigade, and hence the separate tilt test.
It actually began life at Gorton during which time it was fitted with 19.5 inches tyres.
However, when it transferred to Hollins, the traffic calming measures in that area caused the front axle to ground,
It was immediately put back on 22.5 inches standard tyres.
