Trivia[]
- Like Trevor's Bus and the Mountain Rescue 4x4, this vehicle remains unnamed.
- It was initially based at Newtown Fire Station, but since Norman Price and the Mystery in the Sky it is now kept at the rear of Pontypandy Fire Station.
- In real life, this vehicle is Gold Command at major incidents where typically 6 or more fire engines are required.
- Like Jupiter and Phoenix, it has stabilisation legs for wind resistance.
- Its siren is an echoed version of Titan's. Likewise, its sound is also a stock sound effect and can sometimes be heard in other pieces of media.
