Good to see that they have a few bits of fire kit (uniform) on display. The kit they currently wear is unique to this brigade, when many UK brigades now have highly standardised clothing. Not all of the helmets and clothing I saw became standard issue for Manchester, even though they might have been used in trials.

I found there is a lot more there than I expected, well worth a visit.
