Dave Bowen photos
Dave, love seeing the Virginia photos. Here are some updates for you:



The Bowling Green tower is ex-Laurel, DE.



At Sparta, the Ford/Grumman is no longer in service as FD vehicle, it's now used by the utilities department, and is no longer lettered. The FL/Pierce is now running as Tanker 4 and they have a Quantum running as their Engine.



Black Creek's engine has been transferred to the training division and replaced with one of the Seagrave pumpers. They're also very close to moving into their new station, which will have a parking lot that's far more forgiving for photos!

I KNEW SPARTA WAS GETTING A NEW ENGINE. WHEN DR. STINEBAUGH AND I WERE THERE THEY MENTIONED IT.

I DIDN'T REMEMBER WHAT IS WAS TO BE. I AM SURE DR. STINEBAUGH DID. HE HAS A PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY.



BLACK CREEK DID HAVE A LITTLE BIT OF HILL THERE DIDN'T THEY. WHERE IS THE NEW STATION IN RELATION

TO THE OLD ONE.

The old station is about 1.5 miles from the old one on the same road. The old station has already been sold to a church to use as a youth center.

I didn't know that there were any Pierce Dash Pumpers purchased. What is the story behind this one, and are there any other County purchased Dash's?



Looks good.



Thanks

That is the only Dash pumper. The county HAZMAT unit is a Dash and the only other county-owned large Pierce is Engine 84 - a 2009 Velocity 1250/2000.

Dave, I have FR-8 listed as 200 GPM with a 175 GWT. As with most of these skid units, you get different answers depending upon whom you ask!!

WELL I SURVIVED THE TORNADO THAT HIT NEW FRANKLIN. I JUST LOST POWER FOR 8 HOURS AND HAD TREES DAMAGED. OTHERS WERE NOT SO LUCKY. NO INJURIES THOUGH.
