Current Goal

Please take me to your local fire station* and ask nicely if you can have a picture taken of me (with you and/or a firefighter if you wish) in front of their fire appliance. Then send a copy of that picture to - allan.bairstow@btinternet.com - so I can update the bug gallery and my travel bug page which can be found at - (visit link)
I would love to travel the world and see lots of different fire engines in different countries.
* Please check the log/website to avoid duplicating fire stations.

About This Item

At home before its travels !

This is a red toy UK fire engine from the early part of the 20th century. It is a 1988 reproduction of an earlier Matchbox model from the early 1960's. It has been very well looked after by me for many years but it is now time for it to travel about and has some fun !
