Neat Ideas...

I thought the




was a bit weak on its own. It was a nice set, but didn’t have any companions sets, really to increase the fun.

I thought the



station itself had some good concepts, but still had some negative attributes (like it being open at the bottom, where as the other stations had a wall in the front. I really didn’t care a whole lot for the “SUV” included in that set, or the inclusion of the helicopter that LEGO insisted on using for most fire station sets.

What I liked the best was the tender included in the set, though it was a bit weak to be fighting fires in an airport setting.

So if Lego did do an airport FD “theme” trucks that could be intigrated in the rest of town (or go decent to its other fire dept. sets) and could be robust enough to handle all the necessary tasks it needs to do.

Just my opinions regarding this...though some great thoughts already put out!

I think this is a great idea! The airport-style trucks are well worth exploring as inspiration for sets.

   You could have the airport firetrucks, training area (old aircraft the set fire to) etc.

Interesting idea. Might make for a nice play set, but with the possibility of some realism too.

All the best, Allan B.

   This could nicely tie the theme in to a future new airport range.

   If LEGO was to produce a World City Fire line, what would you like to see? Keeping in mind the constraints LEGO would be enforcing on the sets...
