Fire and Rescue

We maintain a broad selection of model fire and rescue vehicles in a variety of scales. Die cast lines carried include Code 3 (1/64 scale), Corgi (1/50 scale), Die Cast Promotions (1/16 scale), Imex (1/25 scale), and others including Ertl and First Gear as available. DeHanes Models are also carried. These are hand-built resin-cast models in 1/55 scale. A variety of unusual 1930s through 1960s vintage apparatus models are produced. These include Ahrens-Fox, Crown, Diamond T, Ford, Mack, Ward LaFrance, and American LaFrance apparatus in various configurations both generic and lettered for specific cities. Please inquire for availability. Assembled HO Scale (1/87th) models include Athearn, Busch, Boley, Roco, Herpa, and Wiking. HO Scale kits include Alloy Forms and Jordan. In addition to models, we carry Fire Apparatus Journal Magazine and a selection fire, rescue, and fire apparatus books published by Fire Apparatus Journal, Arcadia, Iconografix, MotorBooks, and The Visiting Fireman.

We also have the limited number of plastic model kits in 1/25th and 1/32nd scale produced by Ertl and Monogram.
