Dave, if you look on the Richmond thread you'll see these. Also on the Maxim thread too.



Send me a PM and tell me what you want and I'll get some up for you.

Truckman is a good source for Richmond rigs. You might also try firemag & Roto-Ray for Henrico. Firemag may have some older Richmond rigs as well.

The only real fire rig at the annual ATHS show in Frederick,MD. today was this 1973 Oshkosh/Pierce/85'Snorkel x-Fredericksburg,VA.It had the honor of flag duty, but the stiff westerly breezes made it a challenge to shoot.

I made another run through Fluvanna County last Saturday and had much better success this time! I happened to catch Chief Jamie Baughn & a couple of guys at Fork Union. After shooting their rigs I was put in touch with County Chief Mike Brent, who oversees Fluvanna, Fork Union and Kents Store. Mike helped me at Palmyra and then escorted me to Kents Store (where I had never been) and pulled all the rigs out for me there. A side note, there is a fourth fire department in Fluvanna, the Lake Monticello VFD which protects the Lake Monticello gated community and assists the other departments. This department is semi-autonomous and has it's own fire chief.



I'll start with Kents Store which is Co.3

The main reason I wanted to visit Kents Store is because of the dark blue paint scheme.
