WW1 Fire engines
Hi,
I'm after some advice. Not sure if I am posting in the correct part of the forum or not. I'm trying to find any information on fire engines/tenders and fuel bowsers that may have been used on airfields during the great war. Can anybody help or provide me with any pointers? Thanks |

Hello Biggles&Co,
Welcome to the Aerodrome.  I don't know much about fire engines or fuel browsers of the the period, but would imagine that anything pre 1914-1918 would be safe to go with. There are fotos and resin models of fueling carts. Bienvenue has a fuel cart in 1/32" scale. While I didn't find it, you can contact them from this site. Cheers, Jay |

Hippo Models used to have some resin models in 1/72 & 1/48
They no longer appear on the website but some shops may still have them.
Check out Misterkit in Italy: MisterKit British refueling set available in 1/72 and 1/48 scales    German refueling set available in 1/48 but sold out in 1/72   Fire pump is sold out in both scales  Happy Modelling James Last edited by jamo; 19 September 2010 at 03:27 AM. |

Here is a photo of the assembled fire pump from Modelimex.com (who are unfortunately out of stock):
  Looks like this shop in Italy has them all: http://piezaapieza.net/index.php?cur...1661936270cf76 Happy Modelling James Last edited by jamo; 19 September 2010 at 03:28 AM. |

I've also found that RPM have in their range, models of various Mack Bulldog trucks and a model T ambulance.
I'm building up a picture of what is available now |

I have some pics I took of a firehose cart in the Hendon RAF Museum.
I posted them on the Walkarounds page on my site: Walkarounds HTH Wienne |
