Emergency vehicle Bedford C695 AJA.

Another one of the generic Matchbox models which Chinese toy makers are obsessed with copying is the odd looking Airport Fire Engine which Feisu have maximised to include a Police SWAT version! LOL. Its obviously a cheapo diecast though at least its body is made of metal plus the livery looks quite believable. Bought as a single from a 99p Store where they are sold under the High & Drive brand. Mint and boxed.

Matchbox MBX Fire Dasher, an entirely believable classic American style Fire Engine which is completely generic. Seen here in its latest Case C recolour.

Found recently at Tesco.

Mint and boxed.

This picture shows a 1950 AEC Regal/Merryweather 100ft Turntable Ladder that was to remain in service with the Somerset Fire Brigade at Weston-Super-Mare until going out of service in 1974.

Although being sold to a window cleaning company and being painted yellow,later it was repainted red and finally went into preservation.

Me with a prized Smith-Miller die cast hook and ladder fire engine. This was a toy given to me by my Aunt Bea Anderson along with a lumber truck. I still have these although their condition has sadly deteriorated. You could raise the ladder with gear and also extend the length of the ladder. It was quite a toy to have. Christmas 1951

Rescue 4 blocking traffic on Bellew Drive during a high-rise hotel fire drill in 1994, it was Holiday Inn at the time and was completely surrounded by open land. I bet now it's surrounded by other hotels and offices.

A blatant copy of the Matchbox generic Airport Fire Engine. I've seen this casting over the years being sold under various different brands. This particular one has City Vehicles packaging which appears to be exclusive to B&M Stores which is where it was purchased. Not too badly cast though is obviously a cheaper copy of the original Matchbox version. Mint and boxed.
