When did you take the Alexandria Photo? And where was E210 housed as I don't think the new Station open yet?

No Seagraves or E-Ones showed up this year!

Is the show in Baltimore or NY State? There were no closer Ferraras, Spartan ERVs or KMEs than from upstate NY and Long Island?

Apparently not, KME and Spartan had all apparatus from New York state and Pierce had all of our local apparatus.
The only other big dealer there was Rosenbauer. They had the new Baltimore County tiller Truck 5 on display.

Wow 2 shows in 1 month that Seagrave just doesn't even bother coming to, and the last 2 years at FDIC they didn't even attempt to make a strong appearance. If I remember right, one of the trucks wasn't even done this year (decals)
Trav!

Many MFG's quit going to Baltimore because of costs and poor turn out.

I'm guessing that the Lynbrook, NY Ferrara was on it's way to Long Island to be delivered, so it was probably planned for it to be there on the way up from Louisiana, but the other rigs like from Latham and Schuyler Heights are in service units. I understand they get a lot of attendees from NY State, but do they need to see rigs from NY State? You would think if costs were a problem, they'd cut down by bringing rigs from the area the show is in, not from hundreds of miles away!
