I THINK THE BEDFORD PK ENGINE IS VERY NICE LOOKING I WALL PROB.BUY ONE OF THOSE AS FOR THE LDVS THE FIRE DEPT ONE I DONT THINK CFD ACTUALLY HAS ONE OF THESE BUT THE POLICE ONE THEY DO
A better selection would have been the Pierce Platform
or the Pierce Heavy Rescue from Bedford Park and they have Both.Then again maybe Bill is looing towards the future.
There beating the Pierce Dash mold to death!
After all that has been said about mould costs and smaal production runs, making the need for the dreaded "repaints", some people still DON'T GET IT!!!
I will say this about the Pierce Dash mould "repaints": at least these Dashes are from different departments, whereas the Seagrave FDNY moulds are constantly being rehashed with the simple change of a company number. Same paint job, different number(s). I agree, though, that the Dash mould is being used extensively.
The Bedford Park rig is very sharp. I like it, but wish the price was about $10-$15 dollars cheaper.
