The mechanic then pulled out the reserve truck co.

After he pulled it out, it started to make several different strange noises. He was glad he pulled it out and discovered the problems.

The last Metro West station I stopped by was #2.

Now theres something you don't see very often, A Truck company with hard suction hose on it. I can honestly say I have never seen that.

My adventures then took me across I-44 to Fenton FPD station 2. I wanted to stop and get their quint before it gets replaced soon. The bay door was recently raised, i believe to accomendate the new unit.

Next I traveled EB I-44 to Crestwood.
As I was preparing to turn into the municpal complex, the engine I wanted to shoot was dispatched to an automatic alarm. I waited until they returned.

Phil,
What was the piece in the right hand bay of MW Station #5. Looks like an older Sutphen??
Great Shots, even the artistic one!!

The older Sutphen was being used as engine 3344 after they got rid of their Sutphen quint. It was a reserve that was inservice until the new rig arrived. It is a 1993 Sutphen. And it FOR SALE!!! I didnt want the mechanic to pull it out and something accidently happen to it. He said it was rolled when it was a few months old, but it was rebuilt and served strong for nearly 14 more years!!
