Two new, state of the art fire engines will soon be in action in Weston.

Avon Fire and Rescue say the turntable ladder is the first of its kind in the UK ... and the combined rescue pump has the specialist equipment to do the job of a traditional engine AND a rescue vehicle, making it ideal for things like road accidents.

They're among six new applicances worth over two million pounds, which have finished rigorous testing before taking to the streets across the region.
