The fifth release in our series featuring this stoic fire-fighting vehicle comes in the livery of the Dublin Civil Defence. 2007 marked the 50th Anniversary of the Civil Defence Auxiliary Fire Services in Ireland. As part of a national ceremonial event held at Baldonnel on 13-14th October that year, the Dublin Civil Defence had acquired two Green Goddess - PGW 144 and RXP 754 - and painted them in the original Irish Auxiliary Fire Service colours. Our 1:76 scale model is a replica of the fire appliance PGW 144, one of the two re-painted vehicles that took centre stage at the ceremony. |
