    The country's only Ministry of Defence firefighting museum has begun to move its vehicles from the home of the Red Arrows to a new site.

    The Museum of RAF Firefighting at RAF Scampton, Lincolnshire, closed as space was needed to organise an airshow.

    The museum had a presence in Scampton's hangars for about 14 years and shut in January.

    Some of the 50 vehicles left for a new site about 16 miles (25km) away in Gainsborough, due to open in 2018.
