Engine 23 - West Annandale Station

[/quote]



Oldest front line engine in the fleet; currently spends more time at the shop than in the field. AVFD has asked the county for a replacement since they will not be able to afford a new one. AVFD is replacing the medic unit at 23 which has been ordered but not sure of the delivery date.

The Jake I spoke with from E23 said "we'd be better off just leaving it here" (at the shops). Thanks for the info Sr. Didn't know she was the oldest dame in the fleet.

Ok, what is the second oldest front line Engine in service? Bonus if you know it's County vehicle number.

I don't know the shop number but I am willing to bet one of 14's Quantums. And I will take odds on R414 being the oldest vehicle in the fleet on the frontline.

I'm with you Sr. Squad 14's Box is from their old rig damaged by the fire that wrecked their station... which started as an electrical fire in the old Squad. Quint 14 was still in service then. Long time ago. I have photos and video of Squad 14's current box from 1995 on their old chassis. That's 16 years ago. The only rig I think could compete MIGHT be Squad 19's E\-One, thought I'm not certain.

Bingo V074 2001 Quantum as E 414

V077 2001 Quantum is E 414B



I think that Tower 405 is the oldest truck company vollie or county - 1999 Pierce Tower.. The two oldest county trucks are Towers 424 and 436 - 2001 E\-One.

Rescue 414 is the oldest Rescue Company - 1998 Quantum - the box is from the previous Rescue that got burned in up in the fire at Station 14.
