Meet Flo, Tambo’s historic fire truck and a much-loved local landmark celebrating the town’s rural firefighting history.
This 1928 fire engine once served communities in Brisbane and Charleville before finding its home in Tambo. Today, Flo is proudly displayed by the Tambo Rural Fire Brigade, giving visitors a glimpse into the vehicles and equipment that helped protect communities across Queensland.
Stop by to see this piece of firefighting history up close and learn about the important role rural fire brigades play in outback communities. Whether you’re interested in vintage vehicles, local history or simply looking for something different along your journey, Flo is a worthwhile stop when visiting Tambo.
The display is accessible to visitors 24 hours a day.
