    Great model! Exactly like the snorkel company that I used to command (except for the chassis). I've been waiting a long time for someone to produce a good model.

    Chicago Fire Dept Snorkel No.1

    Posted by William Heller on 21st Aug 2019

    Great model of rare truck type...Always been a huge fan of the Chicago Fire Dept. My Dad was a professional fire fighter in a suburb of Chicago, he even attended the Chicago Fire Academy for his initial training back in the '60s. Anyhow, excellent model. More vintage apparatus please...including FDNY Mack CF pumpers and Mack/Baker Aerialscopes from '70s and '80s.

    Posted by Mike Bagott on 7th Jul 2019

    Far and away the most impressive model I've ever had in my collection. Fingers crossed that there will be Seagrave pumper to go with it and the rear mount at some point in the not-too-distant future.
