Each month here in the Apparatus Bay we host a session of "Tailboard Talk" where we focus on diecast emergency vehicles (Police, Fire, EMS, or Rescue) with a specific theme.
This month we will take a look a copies or knock-off models of diecast emergency vehicles. The old saying goes "imitation is the sincerest form of flattery".

Nonetheless, these knock off models make for some interesting finds and provide even more variations in our collections.
So, join us this month for part 1 of "Tailboard Talk" as we feature copies or knock-off models of diecast emergency vehicles.

Please remember the general rules of thumb:
- Limit photos to one vehicle at a time (do not show multiple variations of a casting all at once)
- Once you've posted a pic please wait until another collector has posted before you add another (until the last few days of the month when anything goes).
