I don't know my fire trucks (besides pulling over for them, the closest I ever
get is when I stop at the fire station to ask for directions to obscure garage
sales (I have never been let down!) or drop off LEGO at Christmas time), but

BTW I notice the 10020's on top of the shelves. Here's hoping you got number
0212! No one has entered that number on jt's registry-- I didn't get it unless
it's in an unopened one. :-(
