How about this then? As the station was built in 1970 and these appliances were used until the late 1970s this photo is over 50 years old. Who knew our appliances used to be yellow? We'll never know which watch was on duty that day! Thanks to Dean Large for the image.

White and Purple attended this RTC earlier involving 1 car and 1 van. Luckily no one was seriously injured and the driver of the car had a precautionary check from West Midlands Ambulance Service. The car was made safe and the scene left with West Midlands Police
