Bedford RLHZ Green Goddess.
These self-propelled fire pumps first appeared in the 1950s and were designed to take over from the wartime pumps previously used by the AFS (Auxiliary Fire Service) in WW2 and the NFS post-war. This was at the time of the Cold War and the Civil Defence and Auxiliary Fire Service operated the fleet of Green Goddess Bedford RLs. In recent years the Goddesses have seen service during fire brigade strikes in the 80s and 90s.

Picture showing a classic Bedford, one of 135 images in this set.
- The RLHZ Green Goddess, built by Bedford.
- First built/registered in the 1950s.
- Finished in: Green.
Several thousand photos feature in the various galleries here at oldclassiccar. If you're interested in Bedfords, whether just the RLHZ Green Goddess shown here, or other models in addition to RLHZ Green Goddess, then it is worth looking at the other photos in this set of 135 motoring images, and also on the main photos page where details of all the image collections are held.
Most of the photographs in this set were taken during 2007, either at shows, road runs or in museums. A small number were also sent over to me by visitors to this site, for which I'm very grateful. If you have a photograph that you've taken, showing a vehicle that doesn't yet feature on this site, it'd be great to see it. If you own an example of Bedford RLHZ Green Goddess and would like to see it featured in the Your Cars elsewhere on the site, then by all means get in touch too!
