Did the Hebron Scope get sold?

Yes, to a private collector, but they will not release the name until

he takes possesion of it, once the new ladder is in service.

Without looking through 400 pages of rigs, does anyone have the list of CF and R open cabs and their locations, particularly Mexico? Brought up in conversation and was wondering if anyone can zip it up fast..



Stay safe, Brothers.

Last known to be in James Island Sc sitting behind a station with a blown motor. Offered to Boonsboro Md who bought it from Riverdale Md. Boonsboro decided to not buy the ladder. Heard it was put on Govbids or some such site unknown if it was bought, scrapped, or if it is still in James Island.
