After service at Kalamunda, MP37 entered the metro spare fleet following the addition of a transverse locker at the front of the existing bodywork to house the BA equipment. This allowed space for Rescue tools which had previously been carried in a Rescue Trailer at Kalamunda.
The Pumper entered service in an all red colour scheme and red beacons all around. During the life of the appliance at Kalamunda, the colour scheme was changed to white-over-red with white & red striping and beacons changing to red & blues.
