Engine 40 on scene of a garage fire at 15844 Parkside St in the neighbourhood of Puritan. Ladder 23 also attended but was not required.
The engine houses have taken shape around the power plants, I still need to build the main nozzles as well as some auxiliary engines, and the fighter bay doors are 2/3 finished. The bridge should happen soon! She got 11 studs longer.

The San Francisco Fire Department lost two of its members from Engine Company 26, who were both critically injured during an explosion while bravely fighting a house fire in the Diamond Heights neighborhood on June 2, 2011. Both died at the hospital as a result of their injuries after all rescussitative measures were taken by the Emergency Trauma staff at San Francisco General Hospital.
Days later firefighters from around California and around the country gathered to pay their respects during a funeral service. In this sequence we see some of the equipment from Santa Clara County in a procession after the services.
San Jose Engine 18 is a 2009 Hi-Tech Pumper with a 1500 gallon per minute pump. A reserve engine was used back in San Jose, so this rig was given a new designator for the day. Today it is marked as Engine 52, usually a rig number assigned to the BFO training facility engine.
In the Yorkshire Dales approaching Bolton Abbey Railway Station is GWR 5600 0-6-2T No.5643 with her first train of the day. The railway is part of the Embsay And Bolton Abbey Steam Railway and the photograph was taken on the 1st May 2017.
In June 2011 Santa Clara County Fire Department held "Wildland 2011", a County wide training exercise. On each day of training fire crews from the 11 fire departments in the county were assigned to strike teams and circulated around four different exercise locations around the Los Gatos hills.
Task Force 2 started their day at Divsion D, which gave them an opportunity to practise their hand tools skill sets.
Part of Task Force 2, Santa Clara County Fire Department Engine 314 is a 2009 International Navistar 4x4 chassis with a Cal Fire Model 34 body built by Placer Fire Equipment.

My new North American diesel engine in the Canadian Nation Railway scheme is the first Lego loco I have built since my childhood days and was strongly inspired by the EMD-GP 7, 9 and 20 diesel engines and other similar types that came in full high hood configuration, but I went on to building the model rather freely, leaving out things I didn’t want and not sticking to any particular real model.
Being 9+ studs wide, it’s quite a beast and fits very well to the “large city minifigure scale” preferred by ER0L and me. It drives on two 9V train motors from the 90s. The lighting is realized with materials from that time as well, energized by a separate battery box in the shorter section of the hood and thus illuminating the two fronts and cabin of the engine independently from the transformer. That way, the light can be on even when the model stands still.
I went for moving pilots, even though they don’t exist on such models in reality. This was mostly due to the prolonged bionicle trucks I wanted to use here, which would otherwise have made the stairs stand out too far from the trucks in curves and switches.
I have nearly finished building the first of several tank cars for it, so consider these pics an “opener” for more train equipment to come from me.
Original block has been re-built with mild cam and 625cfm four barrel Carter carburettor on top of Chrysler 4 barrel manifold. Efficient on long trips, but secondaries ready to howl when needed!
Microplas Mistral (1967) Engine 2088cc S4 OHV
Registration Number RLM 31 E
Chassis no. LSR.102.BH
Engine no. TDD36E
The Microplas Mistral is a special based on a Triumph TR3/4
Microplas Ltd was founded in Rickmansworth, Hertfordshire in the early 1950s by a group of 750 Motor Club enthusiasts who got together to design and produce an all-enveloping glassfibre bodyshell for the Austin Seven chassis. Its first design the Stiletto was followed in 1955 by the Mistral. Intended for the contemporary Ford Ten chassis of 7 6 wheelbase, the original, round-tail Mistral looked rather like a scaled down Jaguar D-Type. Cresting the wave of the 1950s kit car boom, Microplas rapidly expanded, relocating to Mitcham, Surrey and supplying Mistral bodyshells its most successful product - to a number of independent producers including Buckler, Fairthorpe and TVR.
This Triumph-based special has the later, Kamm-tail Mistral bodyshell and was constructed in the mid-1960s by electrical engineer Anthony Snapper using a TR3 chassis, Austin A60 front end, TR4 engine and overdrive gearbox. Following Mr Snappers retirement, the car was advertised for sale and featured in Classic & Sports Car magazine (July 2001). The current owner bought the car from Mr Snapper that same year.

You'd be forgiven for mistaking this Oshkosh Fire Engine Ladder Truck for a Matchbox. It looks pretty identical to the original and even wears Matchbox style wheels but its actually made by Maisto. A great deal of their earlier stuff were nothing more than MBX copies and not bad copies either sharing the same quality and finish but invariably a little bit cheaper.
The vehicle itself looks beautiful odd ball with its huge front overhangs and pseudo space age styling, it reminds me a little of the old Nissan Diesel equivalent.
This is an earlier incarnation of this model with its different wheels, true to form Maisto still produce this casting though sadly it looks noticeably cheaper with an horrendous looking lowered ride height!
