139 Merryweathers were built on AEC Regent chassis between 1950 and 1956. Of the total, 111 were dual-purpose fire engines, equipped to carry wheeled escape for use in fighting large fires - upon which we have based our model - or supplied with extension ladders to combat small fires. The fire brigades usually purchased the vehicles in pairs comprising both options. With this in mind, as an added extra, look out for the spare extension ladders that we're enclosing in the packs.
