消防船葛量洪號

消防船葛量洪號



葛量洪號滅火輪展覽館(The Fireboat Alexander Grantham Museum)是香港一所興建中的展覽館,位於香港島東區的鰂魚涌公園。展覽館將實物展示1953年於香港製造,2002年退役的滅火輪葛量洪號






展覽館現正進行最後階段的工程,預計於2007年秋季開放給公眾參觀。


葛量洪號曾是香港消防處的主力滅火輪,1953年6月30日在香港黃埔船塢出廠,耗資400萬港元製造,以當時的香港總督葛量洪爵士命名。2002年退役前一直為亞洲最大的消防船。



葛量洪號船身長38.9米,闊8.8米,高15米,排水量511噸,船速可達每小時11.7海里。船上設有多條用於救火的中攻喉筆、消防泵、水炮和打撈設備,能應付大型遠洋輪船的高層結構火警,並可作為大型海上事故的指揮船。(資料及圖片維基百科)


另 據TVB News 不久的將來可以上船免費參觀了。

  4. 溝渠蓋,安全鐵欄,公廁門柵,掛勾,所有金屬的都不見了。

    滅火輪上有銅喉頭,各樣的銅銅鐵鐵,都是值錢的,可以變賣的,可以搬,可以拆,郁得到,不用三月可以完全消失。

    最後剩翻個船殼!

  8. 聽講『濕地公園』隻 【雪山飛狐】已經不能清潔恢復雪白,成了 灰狐!

    ReplyDelete
  9. 什麼【雪山飛狐】呀?
    我重未去過『濕地公園』架,
    唔好咁樣好掛!!!!!!
    遲啲會唔會變雪山黑狐架???!!

    ReplyDelete
  10. 系呀!

    『濕地公園』未去過, 唔....
    你遲得滯去好可能見到隻黑狐而不是白雪狐。
    黑狐白狐都是狐,中國人用眼都唔夠要摸摸至算。


    同樣消防船的博物院可能遲些剩番個船殼咋,
    去參觀應該趁早喇!

  11. 今日看新聞,
    話有大肚婆去睇消防船,
    硬是要人讓佢一家三口插隊喎,
    新聞話都唔係好多人,
    但係個大肚婆就以肚相迫,
    搞到人人側目喎!

    ReplyDelete
  12. 大肚婆好霸度架!
    知道啲人一定會幫著個肚裡面,
    橫行霸度坐地鐵要讓位畀佢架,
    排隊要禮讓畀佢排先一定優先,
    好似我前個輪寫打油詩都有提,
    果個會計大肚婆又霸度又多口。

  17. Space suggested that I read his achive. I did and I found the conversation here hilarious. You guys are too funny.

    Besides the Fireboat Alexander Grantham Museum and Wet-land Park, any must-see suggestions?~

  19. furthermore, Exile, I am living in HK, everything is too familiar. But my cousin who came back after 30 years in the states found that the HK Museum of History (next to Science Museum Tsimshatsui Area) most interesting and met his nostalgia. The Heritage Museum at Taiwai (near Shatin) the most boring.

  20. Thanks for the HK Museum link. It's handy.

    Museum of History is wonderful. I was in tears at the end of the visit four years ago. Silly me.

    ReplyDelete
  21. eh! so Exile you knew more than me about the Museum of History. I were never been there b4 so I should arrange to take a Wednesday off becoz I heard every Wednesday free entry.

    ReplyDelete
  22. Have you been to the Museum of Coastal Defense? It was interesting too. I stayed until they closed. I remember it was raining heavily that day and it was quite a long walk back to the Shaukiwan tram station. Yeah, I took advantage of the free day too.

    ReplyDelete
  23. Exile, No I never been there yet, even after viewing the HK Govt web site I don't know how to get there by foot. There they only gave the driving direction. You were extremely smart to find the route by walking to the Museum from Shaukeiwan Tram Terminus.
