I chose to do my fleet in HO 1/87 scale for a number of
reasons, one of which is the popular Lindberg Tug kit and Revell Fireboat kit
also 1/87 scale. Here I’m building the John Purves using the hull from the
Revell Fireboat kit, it’s not an identical hull configuration, but it’s close
enough. That’s one thing about tugs, there so diverse, each with there own
design. Someone could have very well taken the real thing and converted it as I
am with this model!
