Wildfire - July 2008

A large wildfire scene was part of the train layout that was displayed during the July 2008 National Model Railroad Association show which was held in Anaheim, CA.  The wildfire was too large for the Buena Vista Fire Department and Lego Department of Forestry (first in companies to respond due to its location) to handle itself.  So a Mutual Aid call went out and apparatus and crews responded from the following the list of departments below.
