[MOC] Fire Station

[Tobysan]

Hi All,

Hope everyone is having a great 2015 so far.

Here's a Fire Station that I was working on late last year, I actually finished it just before Christmas but have only just managed to find time to put together the details of the build.

I've always wanted a classic Fire Station for our town so I went ahead on designing and building one.

Built on a modified baseplate with 3 Garage bays with Shutter doors the Fire Station was put together with parts and vehicles from a Fire Station 60004 set and quite alot of used bricks to manage cost,

The Fire Truck 60002 was also added to this Fire Station crew.

Feel free to check out more information of the MOC with detailed images here as usual.

Also a video here too.

Thanks and enjoy the MOC.

Well, that is a great fire station indeed!

I am a fan.

This is very well done, both from funcition and architecture point of view. And it fits beautifully within the other city buildings.

Very nice job, I like the proportions of it.

Very nice modular fire station 'Tobysan'......it has that NYFD feel to it.....Brick On 'Tobysan' !

Looks really nice! And I can't say anything different to your sketching skills, damn wish I could sketch like that haha. Wondering how it looks next to a modular building from TLG

It looks like a City fire station combined into the modular style. It's very nice!

[Jody Meyer]

Awesome build, I like the look and feel of it, nice layout.

[KringlesBricks]

I really like how you keep the classic look and mix it with the new modular look. Well done!

[Gabor]

I really like it! The design is very clean, and the overall look is fantastic!

[Tobysan]

Thanks for the comments everyone!

Hey langezwieper

Here's the Fire Station between the Grand Emporium and Parisian Restaurant.

I've also placed the MOC next to the Pet Shop in the video @ 2:25

I like it-- very nice! You might consider using a different color door, if you have one? To mix it up a bit so that the entire exterior isn't only red and white.

[Tobysan]

Thanks.

I had the option of white which I have at hand but ended up going with red.

Unfortunately I could only find black and green doors here which somehow didn't seem to go.

Really good, I must do something similar.

[Loves Houses]

Very nice color choice, and fits nicely into the town series. I like the way the first picture is composed, too. Well done, Tobysan, brick on.

By the way, do we need to get nervous because nobody is on duty?

[scottwb2010]

Lovely looking Modular Fire Station you have created Tobysan! The Red and White colour scheme make it really stand out. And the architecture makes it fit in perfectly with other Lego modular buildings. Cool photography also.

[southerntrainfan]

I absolutely love the color scheme…reminds me of cotton candy!

[manton_90]

wow that is really well done.

[alexb420]

Nice work. I think this might look even better in the fire brigade color scheme.

[Firebrickbuilder]

Seen the video on YouTube, brilliant classic design. The detailed used on the outside is fantastic very nice city station.

[Tobysan]

Thanks for all the comments everyone.

Nice work. I think this might look even better in the fire brigade color scheme.

Yes the Dark/Brown Red, Grey, Sand Yellow Fire Brigade colour combination would be nice for this build, just wish those colours were more easily available in my area.

I additionally wanted to tile the interior floors as well but tiles are another tough find.

Well, that is a great fire station indeed!

Could not have said it better myself!

[LittleJohn]

Very nice work! All the arches look great!

[Tobysan]

Thanks all!

Here's an update on how the Fire Station looks with the latest Detective's Office! (couldn't resist)

Good thing the design fits well.

Cracking MOC...I think its refreshing to see the 'classic' colour scheme in your build.
