                  | Today, March 19, 2003, Athearn released information on a new Ford
          C fire pumper. The surprising part of this announcement is that it
          is a totally new tooling of the model including the cab! This
          model features a canopy style Ford C cab that shares almost no common
          parts with Athearn's regular Ford C truck cab. Initial release will
          be six paint schemes and delivery in late May, 2003. Check the New
          Products section for more detail photos. [posted
