Notes

1947 It was decided that Annan should be made 2 pumps to cover Gretna and that Gretna be disbanded. A new station was eventually opened at Gretna on 31/10/1968.

Up until 1988 the Officer in Charge of a two pump retained station was a Station Officer. After 1988 anyone who became the Officer in Charge had the rank of Sub Officer.
