The Sugito fire engine was donated by the Town of Sugito in
Japan to the Shire of Busselton as part of the sister city program. The Shire of
Busselton has donated the fire engine to the Busselton fire brigade.
After some modifications such as additional beacons and the
installation of a two way radio the vehicle has become fully operational and has
been used in fires.
The vehicle has no water carrying capability, but has a 2 stage
pump and is ideal for relay pumping, filling of water bombers and personnel
transport.
If you hear a strange siren in Busselton, it may be the Sugito
fire engine going to an incident.
