Lego purists probably shouldnt look at these.  Not that there are non-lego
parts, but some have been "slightly" modified.  Yes, there were razors,
knives and even a jewlers saw involved.  Should Coranaries occur when
viewing these, I'll happily provide the AED and O2  :o)   >>CLEAR<<

Back to the subject at hand,

http://www.brickshelf.com/cgi-bin/gallery.cgi?f=14215

The trucks are amazing!  That heavy rescue (I belive) is sweet.  The open
cabs too.


One will include its own FAQ.
1.  Yes, it is built after one of the 50s-60s Seagrave sedan pumpers.
2.  No, it isnt for sale.
3.  No, I dont have instructions for it.
4.  Yes, it has been modified, but nothing complicated as my towers or
   anything.
5.  It took about a month of on again off again building to get the look right.
6.  Yes, there will be more trucks of this style to follow.

The jaw hits the floor!  WOW!  I'm not sure what to say!


The 2 hand-drawn trucks are built after 2 that are actually in service at
this time at my real life dept.  The hand-drawn pumper was built in 1854,
and is still in excellent operating and cosmetic condition.  I thought it
only proper to place some of the original fire mini-figs with these rigs.
Yes, the 2 with the hose cart are original figs.

In service!?  Nice looking units ;-)...


Also included in these are a small comparision of my trucks vs.
the JS Fire PO....oops, I mean SUV, one of my new heavy rescues, and a
couple of open cabs not yet posted.

Last but not least, construction of my new lego room has officially begun.
New storage units have been added, and are being sorted through at this
time.  No, that REALLY (hack hack cough cough) isnt a Dash 9 being built on
the table.  Honestly.

SUUUREEE, just kidding, its an AC4400CW, or an AC6000CW :-P, I KNOW my trains...
