Description

The building takes centre stage

Here the focus is the station itself rather than the engines. White forms the walls, red gives the accents you associate with a fire brigade, and black and yellow add the finer details. It comes from a time when town themes were only just taking shape and buildings were made from a small number of clearly shaped bricks. The result looks calm and tidy, which makes it appealing as a display piece if you collect older sets or want to assemble a small town from those early years.

Numbers and colours

The 242 pieces are spread over 43 different types. That is a fairly wide selection for a set of this size and suggests that a few specialised elements for doors, windows or the roof are included. The four main colours, white, red, black and yellow, give the model a clear look. If you read through the parts list below, you will quickly see which colours appear in larger quantities and which are used only as accents on the finished building.

Playing and expanding

No figures come with it, so you decide who works at the station. Modern firefighters from other sets fit inside without trouble, and a fire engine of your own design can be parked in front of the doors. Because the building is made of simple shapes, it is easy to modify, lengthen or extend with a training tower. The build does not take long, but it stays varied enough to be more than a simple copy-the-picture exercise, especially for newer builders.

One station, two set numbers

Set 570-1 is also called Fire House and dates from the same year, though it has 237 pieces and so slightly less material. Whether both versions matter to you depends on whether you want to compare their parts lists. The “What can I build?” tool also lets you check which other models you could put together from the bricks you already own, without buying anything further. That makes it a handy starting point for a rebuild.
