Sue me - I lied - that isn't all for Sharon and on top of that I posted E-4 twice - oops.

Here's their Maxim that was recently sold on e-bay. Someone got a heck of a deal on this rig - it was it tip top shape.

Hoss, great pics. Does Foxwoods casino have their own fire dept? If so does anyone have any pics?


State Of Conneticut - tntway - 07-26-2006

simply AWESOME pics Ed. i didn't realize there was such a HUGE turnout from so many depts in Windsor Locks.



as an aside....yes East Granby Rescue 8 IS the former Hartford TAC-1. ironically Tac-1 was formerly stationed with Engine-8 on Park St. in Hartford.

Foxwoods Resort Casino appears to be protected by the six volunteer fire departments that serve the Town of Stonington.



FWIW - Mohegan Sun Casino has the Tribal Fire Dept that protects the property. I've seen some of their rigs several years ago when I went to a concert there, but don;t recall much about them & I didn't have a camera at the time. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sleep.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='-_-' />

Waterbury E-7 - this was back in 2002 - I wonder what this rig looks like today. For those not farmilar, Waterbury is one of the uglier places in CT.

Thanks Hoss I'm from Waterbury. Engine 7 still looks great. I just saw it on a call yesterday. They just placed another Seagrave like Engine 7 in service at Engine 10 (downtown station) about 2 weeks ago.
