Oh Wow!!! What a surprise Gemma. This Foden steam truck used to be at HMAS Nirimba, the Navy's Apprentice Training Establishment at Quakers Hill in Western Sydney. I was based there for several years at Nirimba's Transport Depot. Later the Navy shut down Nirimba & moved their apprentice training to HMAS Cerberus at Crib Point so it looks like the old Foden got moved there as well. I left the Navy in 1990 so it's good to see this old girl still in active service.
