There is a post earlier in this thread from Eric Hansen that Engine 6 was going to the new Station 8.



I, too, welcome any additional information or corrections.

Do you have any of the new Plano Truck Company I think it was Truck 6?



Thanks in advance,

Rick:



I have not seen any new truck companies, but I have not made it to all of the stations in Plano.



The lads at Station 4 told me that they were getting a new truck any day now. However, it is not there yet.



I am unsure if 6 will be getting a truck company as their current piece is a quint.

Sweet it must have been 4's I saw at FDIC. Never got close to look at it.



Off the subject Does anyone know what happened to Arlington's old fleet mainly the 900's, Century's engines and trucks, Seagrave rear mount that was Ladder 8, Truck 8, Truck 7. The Oshkosh Snorkel that was Snorkel 6,7 and the old Aero-Chief that served Aero-Chief 5, Snorkel 5? Thanks in advance Rick

A post by Jerremy Brown on 6-5-09 of McKinney Engine 1 shows it with a number 620 in the lower left front corner of the cab.



The current Engine 8 has this same number 620 in the same location.



Thus, it appears that the current Engine 8 in McKinney is the former Engine 1.



I stand corrected.

TEXAS RIGS - Frank B - 07-09-2010

I did a search, and found only one Woodlands Fire Department

Problem is the trucks are red, not yellow!

Why would someone not like yellow?
