And there was some Reserve Engines setting around.

1st up RE67
Reserve Engine 77
Reserve Engine 76
Reserve Engine 74
Air Unit 1 setting outside the shops.
Found this one setting inside the Shop yard.
Now to finish the day, we spotted Truck 7 at a Medical Call, so we got them to come down the street when they were done. possibly one of the best shots of the day.
Next stop was Lincoln Park, where I didn't know Truck 13 was running out of the house.
Engine 8
Also caught this unknown Reserve Ambo running out of 8
Next stop Eng 30/Truck 17

Truck 17 was out on a Medical Run, so we shot the Engine only.
And our last stop of the day was Engine 27 "Deanwood"
And the last shot of the day was this Reserve Ambo, which has seen better days running out of Deanwood.

I would like to Thanks once again the Men & Women of The DC Fire Dept. for being so gracious and helpful on this great day of Apparatus shooting. Like I siad I will be back in the very near future, to get some more DC Apparatus.

Hope you enjoyed the photos,as much as I enjoyed shooting them.

Air 2 is running old Air 1. The shop still needs to change the numbers on the truck.

Ford/Wheeled Coach is the manufacture.
Did they buy 2-FL80/E-One air units like I think they did? If so when AU01 got the new rig they just got rid of one of the FL's?



Thanks in advance.

Air 1 got a new truck a few years back when homeland security bought air trucks for the whole metro area. I think there was 6 or 7 trucks in that order. Air 2 got old Air 1 and old Air 2 is a reserve Air unit.
