1939 Yat Ming American LaFrance B-550-RC
Freeport, Maine

This  1:24 scale model may very well become one of the finalist in the model of the 2006 year!  Yat Ming left no detail off this outstanding model.  If there was one item I would correct it would be the hose bed.  Yat Ming, like other companies, continue to use the unrealistic plastic molded hose. 

Without question, this is the best looking Yat Ming model fire apparatus produced to date and should be part of everyone's collection.
