Violetville Volunteer Fire Department, in Baltimore County took delivery of a 2010 Spartan Gladiator/Rosenbauer from DPC.

It has a 1500 pump with 750 gallons of water.

It's the first time in a long time that everything in the house has the same paint scheme!!



I've been trying to get this new rig for the past few weeks. It's been in and out of the station getting outfitted and I finally caught up with it today.

It worked out great with an hour or so of good sunshine and I caught a good fire because I was in the right neighborhood for a change!!!



Thanks Purkey!!!
Finally got a good shot of my ride last week during the good weather in front of the Baltimore Raven's Stadium:

Great shots of both rigs, Howard. Is E343's Mack still for sale?

It's already spoken for!

A local guy is buying it.

Howard, do you know what they finally got for that Mack? I know they had reduced the price twice on it. Glad to see that it is staying local though.



Did you hear that Lutherville sold their Sutphen pumper, E-301?

I think he is secretly starting his own department. whats that three engines and a squad now? wow!
I inquired about the Mack a couple of times with them, but they didn't want to negotiate on the price as much as I did! <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/shrug.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Shrug' />

Very nice! Any idea as to the body builder?

If you happen to see this rig again, I am interested in detail photos of the pump & tail board.

Thanks for posting
