Hi Daddy

today my Friends supriesed me, we visited a Club, where they collect old Fireengines. Zandys Boyfriend showed us those old Trucks and also a lot of Equipment.

We arriverd at the Location. The Sight from the Parking Ground is great. A very beautiful Landscape.



Zandys Boyfriend opened a big Door and then we saw the Fire Trucks. We are all exited to this, but i think, i was the most exited one. The Trucks where big, and red, and beautiful. We all sit on the Bumper from a Magirus-Deuts Jupiter. 6X6 and 178 Horsepowers. It is a FLKFZ 3800/400. In the Past it ran by the German Army and was build in 1964.





I climbed into the Cabin of these Fire Truck and sit on top of the Radio. "puhh" that was exertive"



This Truck have a very big Steeringwheel and Shifthandle. It is a very rough driving.





"Alarm!!!!!!!!!!" hurry up, we have to go for a Fire. Me was driving the other TVs to the Place where the Fire was burning.





At first we have to stop the Traffic on the Street. For this we use a Stoppanel. We have to hold it all, because the Wind was very strong at this day. If only one of us hold the Stoppanel this Tv will fly away.



Then we arranged our things we need to extinguish the Fire. In these Truck there are many many interressting Things. We needed Hoses, Pipes, distributos, Pumps, and many many more Parts. We also find a Sparetyre in the Truck. I hope this one we dont need.







We extinguish the fire with the Watercanon on the Roof of the Truck. Its hard to operate, but very funny. The Water shoot 50 meters. You can harvesting Appels when they hanging on a Tree.







You see me in front of the rotary Beacon?



You find me here? I think so, because we mark the position where i sit on the Truck.





"OK, the Exercise is over, very goog job, everyone"
I hope you are not worried Daddy, it was just an exercise. Not dangerous. Zandys Boyfriend sayed, we all have done a very good Job. He asked us, if we want to join the Firefighters. Maybe I do. After the exercise, we toke a Groupicture.



We saw also other old Firetrucks. Here you see a Magirus DL30 Ladder.





And a big Crane. It is a KW 16. This truck have a 12 Cylinder Engine. Very strong, but very loud.





After that we found a very old Waterpump. This was build in 1857. Very nice. We searching for the Engine, but we couldnt find it. If you want to move this Carriage, you need Horses or many other Tv´s



Hmm, i waiting for the other TVs. But nobody comes. If they know, that i wnat to move the Carriage?.



We found also a lot of stuff you need if you work as a Firefighter.



This Mask you need if you go into a burning House wich is full of Smoke. If you wear this on, your Voice sounds funny, like Darth Vader: I am your Father, Luke.

Here are the Bottels for the Air that you breath.



We just have a look in the Store. There we found old Ladders and hoses.







Now is Time to go. We have to prepare for Lunch. We are invited by Zandys Parents. We all enjoyed the time with these old Fire Trucks. It was very interesting and Funny. I was very happy about the Trip and I enjoed this Day very much.
