None of them have ladders or hoses in place but the one in the front on the right with a more rounded front has some kind of attachment in place that could have been used to hold a ladder. The fire engine on the left has is square shaped engine with an upraised steering wheel. The centre engine has Metropolitan Fire Brigade painted on its body. In the background are the sides of brick buildings and several piles of equipment. Wheels, barrels and pipes and some kind of wheeled appliance form the bulk of it.
