Greetings...and welcome to the March, 2023 Newsletter. Our apologies for being a bit later than usual this month!
As mentioned previously, we're in the middle of our annual down time, as our factory is resuming development and production after the break. And it is perfect timing as we're celebrating the birth of a grandchild, mourning the death of a grandfather, moving a daughter to a new home, and working hard on new warehouse construction. Thank you for your patience as we tend to the most important things in life...family.
Our next shipment is scheduled to leave next month and will include the previously released new spec FDNY Seagrave engines, as well as the Washington D.C. Tillers and 1996 HME Rescues for FDNY. We're changing our logistics schedule this year to offset the skyrocketing prices from the Covid era...which of course, have not come back down. So we'll ship full containers, which means more product in each arrival, with a slightly spaced out departure schedule.
We will not have any new releases in March, but will resume in April. Keep an eye out for April's newsletter for official launch dates for the D.C. Tillers and FDNY HME Rescues.
Scroll down for a brief visual of what's going on here at Fire Replicas and stay tuned in the upcoming 3 weeks for another update in our April newsletter. As always, thank you again for being part of an elite group of fire apparatus collectors!
