Lower Currituck operates two of these trucks. They were originally marked as "engines" and the re-classified as tankers.
One runs from the Waterlilly station, and the other from Powell Point's Station (near the Wright Brothers bridge)

Final visit this week was Moyock. This is the first station you find when crossing over from Virginia to North Carolina on your way to OBX.
It has been awhile since I have visited Moyock and was able to photograph the fleet in digital.

A couple of Storm units are in service in Hatteras.
Sad state for Hatteras's antique engine, a 1960 Dodge/Howe, 500/500. For a long time this engine was the only fire truck along the entire stretch of the Southern Beaches.
