Fire Replicas has released a B-61 tractor which means sooner or later we may see a Fire Truck. These Mack B-61's look great!

Makes the FDNY Searchlight rigs more of a possibility!

Close however the Searchlight rigs were B-20's. Also each truck that is made starts from the ground up, none of the molds are used to create a different version, with the exception of the demo models eve those have different parts to make hem unique. Having the Mack license does help the chances on a searchlight.

Chicago pumpers seem like a no-brainer.

If they do it, I may jump back in. Too hard to pass up.

Or the CFD Tiller's Chicago had them from 1960 to 1977 pulling old FWD trailers. Fingers crossed
