STLFD Hook & Ladder Co. 6: 1996 E\-One Hurricane 105' RM Aerial Platform. Although still in great working order, being 11 years needs to be replaced. One can only hope and think what H&L 6 will get next. The always get the different truck. I think the best was the 1981 Sutphen.

This was one of the highlights of the parade! The 2006 Sutphen designated as Foam Aerial 1 from the Connoco-Phillips Refinery in Wood River, IL. I have some great shots of this one!

The Belleville Seagrave is now privately owned by a fire truck collector who lives in Fairview Heights. Before this truck was retired it use to run as Eng.2.

With all the trucks sqeezed in so tight, it was hard to try to "artsy."

Here is East Side FPD with American Flag and Arch in the background.

Love this shot.

Today I had I nice little adventure. I was able to get all of the truck I set out after. I started out with the Spanish Lake Fire District, located in North St. Louis County. I made it by both of their stations. The crews were all very friendly.

I started at Spanish Lake station 1 located at Bellefontaine RD @ Parker. This station was recently added on to.

The FF's at station 1 were kind enough to point me in the direction of station 2. Station 2 is located on Larimore Rd @ Cove Ln.

Housed here is Quint 5125.
