Last one for now, more if there is interest.
Minneapolis MDU 19 (Decon unit) 1990 International 2600S/2003 Kohler
This is one of several throughout the state. All the others are about half this size.
The tractor is off the former L-10

First due @ the home in which I grew up. If someone would have told me as a wee lad that one day IGH would have black-over-red rigs, and the FF's would have traditional leather helmets, I probably would have gone into hysterics.
Thanks, John. Love seeing the rigs from our neck of the woods.

John, Do you mind me adding some of my stuff onto the thread? I finally decided to bite and jsut throw um all on photobucket instead of puttsing around with them.

Patrick, Dave, Dave and Eric; thanks for the nice words.
Will; feel free to post away.

Here are a few more from Minneapolis.
The Mobile Lab is assigned to the Haz Mat team
2006 International/RVI

Minneapolis E-4 2004 Commander/Rosenbauer General 2000/750
This unit was formerly assigned to E-7, until they received a 2008 Arrow XT.
Minnesota Apparatus - Guest - 03-03-2009
Ladder 4 was formerly assigned to L-11
1998 Sutphen 1500/300/100
Minnesota Apparatus - Guest - 03-03-2009
Probably would be better with the picture.
Minnesota Apparatus - Guest - 03-03-2009
If you get confused by these next couple pictures, join the club. These are two different rigs on opposite ends of town.
Minneapolis Quint-2 2004 Commander/Rosenbauer General 2000/500/100'
This was assigned to station 2 in 2008 and formerly served as Quint 20. The two companies switched rigs, so that the NE part of the city, where Station 2 is located would have an additional aerial device. This was necessary, due to a bridge over the Mississippi being closed. The bridge was the main route for L-10 into the area.
Minnesota Apparatus - Guest - 03-03-2009
When these Quints were ordered, the plan <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hysterical.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='
' /> was to put them in the outlying stations. One of these was put into Station 21, which at the time was a dual house. When that happened Ladder 2 was closed. Eventually the department found some money, and Ladder 2 was put back into service, using the Former Quint 21.

Engine 21 in their current ride. 1993 Ford L/General Safety 1250/500 Former E-8, E-22
Minnesota Apparatus - Guest - 03-03-2009
Last one for now. When E-5 received their 2008 Arrow XT, their former unit was assigned to Station 19. When this unit was purchased for Station 5, it was determined that the addition of the TSQ ladder made the unit too tall for the Station.
1999 FL/General Safety 1500/500/65'

Here are a couple from the other side of the river.
St. Paul received 4 of these pumpers from Custom, in 2008.
E-4, E-9, and E-7 have identical specs, with the exception of a elevated monitor (100") on E-7
