Trust me those doors pay for themselves in the long run

I think they have moved into the station, not sure though. 12's new medic unit should be in the county by late march.

What does the Technical Rescue Support Unit carry? Are there ones equipped for the various disciplines or are there others with similar equipment? And does the shop turn the truck into an emergency vehicle or an outside vendor?

Thanks,

Gary

This unit is a reffered to as the tunnel rescue unit by most people. It was purchased with grant money for the tunnels at Dulles and the metro tunnels in tysons. I believe it came wired up as an emergency vehicle.

Anyone know the status of FS 10 and if T410 is still assigned there?


Fairfax County VA - Guest - 01-20-2012

T410 is still there. I think they still go over to FS428 for the night though.


Fairfax County VA - Guest - 01-21-2012

12 is compete and as of my visit 2 weeks ago were operating 100% out of there (though using a county reserve Engine and Medic). Not a bad house - though it still feels a bit like a factory IMO. Folding doors rock. The yuppies in Great Falls should have few complaints about the aesthetics. Too bad 16 got boned into looking like an antique store to please the local yocals.

And yes, Truck 410 still spends the night at "Buffalo Ridge" (FS28).


Fairfax County VA - Guest - 01-21-2012

FS12 in service - with reserve Engine and Medic. There is another bay next to the Medic that I couldn't fit in the shot.
