Thought this was an interesting truck. Most of Franklin Community's district consists of rural water and access problems to the dry hydrants. So, FCVFD got a local company to build a flat bed and the members done the rest. This truck has a Cat Diesel engine to run the used Hale pump and the only equipment carried are six sections of hard suction, 200-300 feet of LDH with a manifold to fill mulitple tankers at once, a deck gun, and minimal hose adapters, wrenches, etc. Very neat little rig!

The previous setup used to be mounted on this truck before they realized it was over weight too so the F550 was purchased to handle the added weight.

Winston-Salem FD Reserve Truck.

1992? Spartan/AI

1250/?

Found this in the back of Clemmons Station 14 a few weeks ago. Unknown why it was there. Spotted same rig today at WSFD Station 7. Rescue 7 was not seen. I'm thinking they were using this as a spare while Res 7 is in the shops.

Casey,



This unit is known as Reserve Truck 16 but is running as Truck 2 for the time being. Its a 1998 Spartan/Quality/AI 1500/400/75'.



A few months ago, mold was discovered in the $1.3 million station 2 built in 2004. When they discovered this, Engine 2 was relocated to Engine 10 and Truck 2 was moved to Engine 7/Rescue 1. Because Rescue 1s house is so small, T2 is running this truck temporarily instead of their Sutphen. Hope this makes sense.

Here is a link to the on-going mold saga at Station 2:

Thanks Micah,



I had seen the story in the media. Hope the mold issue is not too severe. I had wondered where they would relocate the rigs while the issue was being dealt with.



Thanks again.

Clemmons FD Memorial Bell.



I know this is not a rig but found it in front of the station a few days before 9/11. They rang the bell during their 9/11 ceremony.
