As with most fire department antiques I run into, this one couldn't be moved for photos due to mechanical reasons.

Looks like a 300/100. Richmond had three of them back in the day. Is this one original to this department?

I'm not sure John. The firefighter that was helping me knew very little about this truck.

Micah, these rigs had Rotary Pumps. The ones we had were 1920 "B"'s, very similar to this one.

Here are a few more shots from Forsyth County. Piney Grove station 2 has a cool 1977 Hendrickson/Pierce engine but a shot of this truck will have to be saved for another day because the station is unstaffed.

Here is an interesting rig IMHO. You don't see many engines setup like this and I believe this is setup more as a rescue.

I was just at Sutphen in August when this truck was being tested before final inspection- wasn't sure at the time where it was going. I'll have to dig my pictures out and see, I think I took a photo of it at the factory.
Trav!
