DCFD E25, Congress Heights. Pierce Arrow XT pumper..
I went to Washington, D.C. in 2004 & visited the various historical sites & museums there. I'm still full of wonder regarding the place. Also, my friend Bill Hattersley & I visited both the Pierce & Seagrave manufacturing facilities on consecutive days in May, 2018. Coincidentally, they were both building pumpers for the D.C.F.D. So, to commemorate our visit to Pierce & Seagrave, I decided to acquire one of each of the 2 brands of pumpers. I chose E25 as my Pierce model, since it was on sale with the biggest discount. All the models were extremely desirable, so price became the sole determinant as to which model to choose. It's interesting to note that although both manufacturers built their pumpers to the same general specification, particularly regarding equipment locations, there are still equipment differences between the way that they fulfilled the required specifications. For example, the air conditioners are quite a bit different. Seeing the 2 rigs in my collection always evokes fond memories of a fun trip from Detroit all the way back to Vancouver, B.C.

All fire replicas
All of the fire replicas are SUPERB. I didn’t think anything would equal TWH in detail, but you have surpassed it.

DCFD E25
Once again the Fire Replicas “Shock and Awe” team went into DEFCON 5 mode when replicating the Pierce Arrow XTs. The quality, accuracy, crispness and realism is jaw dropping. If you want to see a model Fire apparatus Collector beg for mercy, show them a DC Pierce Arrow XT. While all 5 companies are identical they each have unique Identifying markings, I.E, Colored LDH lines on the rear step, finite decals on supply lines and attack lines, high rise hose packs differ from company to company. The amount of decals and how small they are is mind boggling, safety and warning decals, company markings, numbered cabinets etc etc etc. Hands down, absolutely gorgeous replicas, a welcome addition to my ever growing collection .
