yepee theres a fire....

This one is a brand new Pierce. no departmental markings yet but red, so probably not Springfield.

You would have thought it would be an unusual niche copying the overtly generic castings of the Toys R Us Fast Lane 1/64 line but its surprising how many Chinese toy makers do. Not the full array but mainly the pseudo-futuristic looking Fire Engine with its angular cab and wraparound windscreen.

Qizhuo Toys have taken this unique cab design and used it for a scissor lift truck in Fire Engine guise. Chunky but substantial with good solid build quality and obligatory pullback function.

Found in a Chinese bazaar in Spain.

Mint and boxed.

Shortly after 5:30 PM Saturday evening, Santa Barbara County Fire responded to reports of multiple people trapped on the beach. Upon arrival the first engine found 3 victims, 2 female and 1 male, trapped on the beach by rising tide and surf. Unable to make it back to the stairwell, the fire department opted for a rope rescue. A hole was cut in a fence and two rescue personnel rappelled approximately 75ft down to rescue the victims. The rescue took over an hour as the surf continued to slam against victims and rescuers. Three engines, a truck and a water rescue team responded to the scene. All three victims sustained only minor injuries.
