    A couple of shots at Small Heath Station. The light wasn't brilliant but you do what you can.

    Can any one supply further details regarding the GUV now in use as a water carrier. Current number carried, brakes (dual or otherwise), weight, livery etc. would be useful.

    Can't help with any of the other details, but livery is basically chocolate Brown replacing the Maroon.

    It's a 30 ton GUV with 3x1000 gallon tanks inside - i.e. an extra 13 or so tons when full. Can't help over braking. Hard to believe that it wouldn't be dual.
