American-Lafrance Fire Engine
During the 1931 Black Tuesday labour battle in Estevan, Saskatchewan, the RCMP and town police used the town's American-Lafrance fire engine to intimidate the strikers. During the battle, RCMP first opened fire in response striker Nick Narvan climbing onto the fire engine. When I organised the first attempt at the game in May I improvised the fire engine from a 1:48 scale WWII tanker truck on a deuce and half truck. It bothered me that the model was not authentic, so I searched for a more accurate model of the town's 1928 fire engine, eventually finding an STL for a very similar model from Wargaming 3D. Gaming buddy Tyler printed it out for me, and here it is with some paint on it.
