D305 - The Mobile Steam-Powered Fire Engine from Wilesco
In 1987, Wilesco released its first mobile steam engine in the form of a fire engine. The fire engine was modeled after the automotive Magirus steam pump, which was used by fire departments in Germany, England, and the US around the turn of the century.
The small, mobile, and steam-powered version of the Wilesco fire engine is modeled after the original down to the smallest detail. With simple heating using our dry fuel Witabs, the fire engine can move forward and backward, making it fun for the whole family.
Just like its model, the steam-powered car has a standing boiler and drive. The self-priming water pump can be put into operation with the clutch lever. Under the front bench seat of the fire engine is a water supply tank. This has a direct hose connection to the water pump. The benches are made of wood, the boiler itself and all pipes are made of brass.
"Real" functioning water jet of the Wilesco fire engine Of course, the water jet can also be used as such, just like a real fire engine. The pump that can be operated draws water from the water tank under the bench seat. This can then be sprayed up to 3 meters away. The pressure of the water can be adjusted with the steam shut-off valve. As with the original, the D305's water tank can be refilled with a hose. This means that on the one hand, the boiler can be manually filled with water, but on the other hand, a hose can be hung in water, for example in a water glass, and refilled through the suction function of the tank. To do this, simply turn the flywheel in the other direction.
Did you know...
...that fire trucks in Germany are completely different from those in the US, for example? This is because German fire departments must be as multifunctional as possible because they drive to many different deployments in diverse situations. A German fire truck must be able to travel through both urban areas and forests and fields.
...that the first fire pumps were already invented in ancient Rome? The first public fire departments were organized under Emperor Augustus.
...that the very first fire trucks were built as carriages and wagons? The fire brigade or their horses then pulled them to the deployment site. During industrialization, these were further developed to be motorized. However, widespread use took a long time: it was feared that the weight of the motorized vehicles would cause damage to the streets.

Wilesco D320 Steam lorry This nostalgic truck with cable remote control Z361 is a miniature model of a truck series from 1915. The transport of goods with such vehicles was slower at that time and had nothing to do with today's just-in-time deliveries. The truck with tarpaulin inspired by historical models has a fully functional steam propulsion. The boiler and the single-cylinder, double-acting unit specially designed for this mobile steam engine model are housed in the driver's cab. The roof of the driver's cab is held by a magnetic clasp and can be easily removed to fill the standing steam boiler with water. The burner lever is located between the wheels of the front axle of the Wilesco D320 steam truck. The steering (right/left) is done using the cable remote control Z361. Note: Forward and reverse steering is not possible. The wood tarpaulin can be tipped backwards to unload.
Wilesco D310 Foden lorry "Mighty Atom" Model D310 was added to the Wilesco product line in 2013. It is an accurate reproduction of a truck from the English brand Foden, which also carries the name "Mighty Atom". Foden produced steam-driven trucks between 1896 and 1930, all of which had a payload of over 3 tons. The Mighty Atom was one of these models. The intricate spoke wheels, wooden flatbed, and gold-printed cab are just some of the features of this beautiful model. The D310's chassis is marked with the Wilesco logo and model designation. Powerful Drive Through D405 Components For a powerful drive of the Foden truck, both the boiler housing and the boiler, cylinder, piston, and steam lines of the D405 are installed in this model. These components were specifically painted black for the Mighty Atom. The steam truck's flywheel has a diameter of 55 mm. The two-speed belt drive of the truck acts on the rear axle. The vehicle is delivered fully assembled, making it ready to use immediately and controllable via the steering wheel.
