I work with a nonverbal teenager with autism who loves emergency vehicles. I’ve been wanting to do this with him too.
He lives in a small town and we pass by the station almost every day for one of his reinforcer/reward car trip for doing good work. I’d love to make it a monthly reward or something but I’ve been nervous about asking. We don’t need a grand tour or anything, just someone to walk us around the truck for a few minutes.
I’m gonna pop in and ask.
Edit: love all the responses and thank you stranger for the gold. I knew they’d be open to the idea but didn’t realize just how open firefighters are to special needs guests.

I love that smile! I kinda wanna walk my grown ass over and see if they'll let me, too!
