I couldn't find an open topic for West Virginia apparatus, thought I would start one. Feel free to contribute, this is not just stuff I've got.
My dad and I visited Mineral County last summer. This is a beautiful area with a lot of nice equipment.
Starting off with the Keyser Fire Department, Company 33. This is the apparatus at their main station.
Engine 33-13 is an unusual 1998 ALF Eagle/1999 KME, 1500/750, with KME #4104. One of two built (other is in Roxburo, NC).

If you are an American LaFrance fan, Keyser is the place for you. Engine 33-15 is this beautiful 1984 ALF Century, 1250/500, sn- 18109. I love the deck gun on this one.
This 1960 ALF 900, 750/400, sn- L5754 was still in reserve status last summer. Sold to a collector in Pennsylvania in 2015.
