Hi all,
   In a few days of semi-fervent construction, I have nearly completed the first
vehicle to go with my large fire station
(http://news.lugnet.com/build/?n=13204).
It is a model of a 1997 Seagrave 100' Tiller Ladder Truck. Pics are on
BrickShelf (upon moderation) at
http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=41243

Some deep links:
The cab has been reworked, changing the window config and adding raisable
lights:

The trailer has a fully rotating, raisable ladder; I need to get some more
parts to make further segments. It is also fully loaded with tools:

The entire vehicle has lots of operating doors and other features:

A not-so-good picture of the real thing is at

Thanks for checking it out! Any suggestions for improvements are most welcome.

Roy
