John - do you know if what's left of 'Dallas Recovery' still have their collection of classic fire engines, or at least some of them that they had in the 1980's?

I was told some were in the 'transport museum' in Beith, but never could get the guy to tell me when it was open to the public and then it eventually shut.

Thanks, Bob. Wink

I haven't heard anything Scotty, I will try and contact my wife's cousin who stays in Beith as see if he knows anything.
