We consider a simplified model of first-passage percolation, involving two families of i.i.d. random variables $\{ \xi_{ ij}\}$ and $\{ \eta_{ ij}\}$ corresponding to the weights of the horizontal and vertical edges respectively. We obtain an explicit formula for the limiting shape of the first-passage distance expressed in terms of the corresponding limit shapes of the two sets of weights for the Sepp\"al\"ainen--Johansson model. We also study the limiting fluctuations of this model when at least one of the sets of weights is Bernoulli distributed.
