Fire Engine Experience
Product code: FDAYD
Have you ever driven a 13 ton Dennis or Scania Fire appliance? Do you fancy having a go? Well here's your chance!
They usually pass you by in a blur and you can hear them coming a mile off! But what's it like to get in the cab and drive it yourself? Why not find out in a one-to-one session with an experienced instructor and firefighter.
Driving the appliance around a specially laid out course including top gear main roads, roundabouts, T-junctions, slaloms and garages, we’ll make things as realistic as possible - the vehicle will be carrying a full equipment load and carrying two tonnes of water!Usually you get the chance to use the hosesand sometimes put out a fire!
