Freelance 2012

On vehicles, here are two Boley white dump trucks I recently got from 3000toys:     I think either one of these could credibly get railroad logos, and probably wouldn't need to be converted to hi-rail, either. I'll probably paint the dump body on the larger truck white.

Here's another interesting item, some Boley brush pumpers that I've gotten over a period of time:     The yellow one is for the US Bureau of Land Management, the red one would be a local community fire department, and the green one is for the US Forest Service. Boley did others in other schemes. I wouldn't use these for an urban scene, as most of Boley's fire apparatus is for western brush or forest fire type activity. But here are some similar units I caught last year staging for a brush fire near Tehachapi:     Note the prototype units have crew cabs, but the models don't.
