I wasnt able to get it pulled out with the crew training on the new rigs.

The FF didnt want me to get too close with them training, so I wasnt able to get great shots of the two new engines.

This unit got wet from the engines deck guns. They were shooting over the station.

This looks grainy because my camera picked up some of the water vapor from the deck gun training

My next stop was to this brand new Community FPD station 1, also a brand new Sutphen engine lives here. Station 2 is scheduled to be rebuilt in the newar future and they will be recieving a twin to this engine. I like to thank the Community FF for pulling it out even though he wasnt the engineer. He also gave me the grand tour of the beautiful new station. I wish I had a pic of the old to show how bad the other house was.

Next stop on my trip was the Normandy, Missouri Fire Department. Unfortunately, for some unknown reason they wouldnt pull their very nice Pierce engines out. I had no clue they had two until I stopped by. Also the numbering at this station doesnt correspond very well with the St. Louis Metro numbering system. Although this is one station the pumpers are numbered as if they have a station 1 and 2. Also the medic is numbered as if it runs from station 3. Normandy only has this one station. Im not sure why they are like this.

This is the engine numbered for a station 2, I wasnt able to get any other shots of it.

Same with this, not other shot. They sure are nice looking units though. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sad.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Sad' />

I'm struggling with these. Are you sure that they aren't Precision rigs? I should know if they're Rosebauer rigs, and I just can't find the tell tale signs, plus the badges on the grill, pump panel and so forth look like Precision's badges.



Not trying to be a know it all, just trying to see if I'm completely nuts.



Anymore, the boys at the plants slap the big red R wherever they can.


St. Louis Metro - Guest - 07-06-2007

Yes, sorry they are Precison rigs.
