Hi Gil,
the fire department is operated by volunteers who are present only to operations and exercises.
Unfortunately, there was never anyone and all doors always closed tightly.

A fire alarm I wanted to but not specifically trigger because of that.

Just back from a road trip through the northern parts of Norway.
Several nice finds, for instance this roadside cafe from the twenties:

Speaking of surroundings, I took the picture of the old cafe from my hotel window.
We spent  a night in a very photogenic hotel built in 1923. It was reopened in 2010 after closing at the start of  WWII:



Just behind the cafe there is a river were you can still see the deck of a road bridge that was blown up to stop the german army:



And here is another nice outhouse just across  the hotel:



Lots of modeling potential within a hundred meters radius!
Regards, Hauk
