Apparently in real life they are generally second hand fire engines purchased and operated on large depots to ensure a rapid response to site incidents.

The model pictured above was the prototype for a commission build for one of our customers. It is planned to be completed in September 2007 and will be offered for sale here.

We have decided to show this model early here to see what interest is generated in this type of model, other variations of TMD Fire Service vehicles maybe produced if interest is keen enough.

Built on a 1/72 scale model, this is probably the closest scale chassis fire engine to the UK model railway 1/76 scale and so offers great realism in the authentic environment of a TMD, depot or open road scenario.

A comparison of our scale model samples against a Hornby Class 47 can be seen by clicking the image to the right.

This model would looks superb and very realistic on any modern OO/HO Railway as a trackside feature or parked up in your depot or perhaps outside your railway station.

Highly realistic blue warning roof light beacons.
Front side doors either side marked with EWS red/gold decals
side tender body panels with TMD Fire Service decals either side.
Yellow and Blue batten-burg design markings fitted to the van including door marker stripes.

Buying from us with eBay

We do on occasions list some of our model vehicles on eBay for auction or 'Buy Now'.

On such occasions the model vehicle's listed are available and the price is either pre-set or is available to bid upon in the auction style format.

When we list our models onto eBay, the eBay rules apply and we can guarantee that the vehicle exists, is built and has been reserved for the winning bidder.

a cautionary word...

However, although to date we have not removed a listing from eBay, we do reserve the right to do so in the future if interest is not apparent in the auction but is indeed apparent here on our website.

So the rule of thumb for our models on eBay is, if you see it, like it, want it, BID ON IT or it maybe removed by the time you come to place you bid!
