That firetruck is one of the best looking lego toy firetrucks in my opinion, it's unfortunately that the truck doesn't have a fire hose for the minifigs like they always had back in the day. The station itself also looks great, but again, the fact that the truck doesn't even halfway fit inside is disappointing, however those door mechanism are amazing! Overall it's a really nice set, far from perfect, but I would have loved to have this as a kid.

Really enjoy the unusual design of it. Feels like police/fire stations looked basically the same for years and years, so it's nice to see something completely different from the past. A big plus also for having the options with the truck, as someone who prefers more realistic-looking City sets, I've been rather disappointed in the last 5-10 years where a lot of fire trucks have just had a big fire cannon that didn't look believable at all. With this one you can have it either way you prefer.

Thanks for the review, Jang! The very nice part about how the doors are constructed is that it looks really easy to widen them by a couple of studs, maybe even make them taller to support the whole truck, including any side mirrors. (that's been my problem with the old 8-wide segmented garage doors for years, they're too narrow for the huge trucks we get). I'm looking forward to seeing how this looks when expanded, and how easy it is to make other numbers with the existing tiles....

Even though I'm primarily a classic castle/pirates/space junky, I've always had a heart for emergency vehicles and oversized vehicles. I could definitely see myself buying this and modding both the station and truck. I'd want to add significantly more depth for both the truck and living quarters. The I'd remove the "water tank", make space for a second fireman, and add an old reel hose. Plus, if I'm feeling frisky, I'd change the truck color scheme to white with a blue stripe like the county fire engines where I live.

An okay start to a station. Some curved glass windows to fill enclose that middle section would really help to make the set look bulkier.

i understand that they can not make the build long enough to fit the truck but it might be better if they build the station in a way that the garages have no plates in the driveway (perhaps a curb where the door meets the ground for structural integrity) but the truck stays directly on the floor so it is all even. that might make the play a little smoother

Great approach with very cool know-how and prints. As AFoL, I would prefer a different setup: Station with port 1 full truck length (open at the backend okay), on it the control room as it is, but two beds room and an entertaiment room (pingpong or gaming) at the backside. Next to it, the alert skid as it is, behind a place to store the shoter option plus a hint of tools behind and on it the heli pad at the backside. Then an attachable add-on set with port 2 and the van. For the truck, I would move the compartments down to wheels high, move the water tanks forward and take free space for two back facings seat for the crew.

With this set, originally regretted its purpose due to a OK building experience and configuration (I disliked the gap between the silver and red wedges). After awhile it's grown on me due to how the garage doors are set up. Unlike the other older type of garage doors, these ones can have the potential to expand the doors length allowing for wider lego vehicles to be able to fit. With the set growing on me, I decided to include the station's facade in my Emergency HQ MOC (before it was just a police station/Jail). The garage doors alone have proven extremely useful in allowing for the storage of 8 wide vehicles with modifications. Unfortunately it looks like the fire department will have to accept less real estate than the Police station garage but at least I was able to make it seamlessly fit in my densely packed city.

Here is my solution to the garage space issue. Have the smaller, pickup style truck with the fire engine sets, and put more pieces toward a larger fire station (adding more rooms or even a secondary build to put out a fire), and have the long fire engine be the second most expensive set of the wave. I know it’s not to LEGO’s way of going about waves, even though they’ve done away with their own method for the most part anyway-at least where DC and Marvel and Star Wars are concerned-but I would like it if they did the fire station and hospital/ER sets as modular building sections, that connect to form a more “complete” play set. It doesn’t have to close up, but at least look more complete from the front face or even from two faces. That could solve the matter of open doorways or empty windowpanes.

I like the fire truck, but I agree that the middle of the truck is wasted space. That, plus the shallow design of the fire station, do three things. First, it keeps the cost down.

Perhaps Lego discontinued the molds for them or maybe they forgot

But I've a plan to moc this set to add more space, more bays, also to accommodate the airport fire truck set 60061-1, easy to do with the front doors being plate built. Thanks for the review.
