Description
76TLM006 Oxford Diecast Leyland TLM Fire Engine Birmingham Fire Brigade.
Another great classic fire appliance in the Oxford fire series is the Leyland TLM/Metz 104ft Turntable Ladder, registered BOF 389, which is being released as it served in 1935 with the Birmingham Fire Brigade. The Brigade bought it from new for their Central Fire Station and ran it continuously until it went out of service, being sold into preservation in the 1960s. It is quite a colourful piece with the usual red and silver bodywork and black chassis being in sharp contrast to the lovely dark green ladder, printed with Birmingham lettering along its length. The open cab features the authentic interior in black.
This model is delivered on a black base with an attached clear jewel case ready to be displayed. It can also be unscrewed from the base and placed on your model railway or diorama.
