Toy train

[CoilyGirl]

Does anyone know anything about large toy cars like this? I dug it yesterday and the style looks to me to be around the 1950's maybe? It was underneath a large piece of cloth,almost like a piece of rug and it was buried on a bumped up area on the side of a road where an old house stood. The window cafe was caves in so the mister tried to pry it a little and that part broke off bit I still like it.i cannot find any markings on it as to what brand it is.it is 9 inches long and three inches wide.

I am no expert, but it looks like a fire truck to me. I am sure there is someone on here that knows for sure.

Usually when I see something is that long with pinpointing, I pass over it, lol. I am glad you don't! Nice truck, CG.
