.

Here is a fire truck on the Lionel Layout at the Virginia Museum of Transportation.

.

.

Show me another Fire Truck. Actually, professional fire fighters like to call them "aparatus" instead of "truck", but that does not sound right to me.

.

Anyway... another fire truck please.

It's kind of small but the idea is to get cargo off of a train and into a truck as fast as possible.
