Dinky Simon Snorkel

 I had this for my sixth birthday in June 1966. My brother was born the day before. I remember I lost the removable firemen figures in the grass and the visiting nurse helped me find them. Not my pic. Off an auction site. Mine is long gone.

Corgi model from the Major Packs Emergency Vehicle range of toys. The Simon Snorkel fire engine was made between 1964-74, with a Bedford cab, 6 firemen, water cannon, extending and rotating boom. From here
