Virginia apparatus - miscellaneous
Quick story about the tanker. Chief Brent told me the previous tanker was a 2000 gallon converted fuel oil truck that was involved in an accident. The members were reluctant to get another tanker with the same capacity, so to assuage their concerns this was ordered with an 1800 gallon tank, although he told me it actually holds almost 1900 gallons. He apologized for the rigs being somewhat muddy because of recent calls.

I posted the rigs from Palmyra Company 1 from a previous trap back in August 2010, so I'll just post the units I didn't shoot last time. I guess I should include Chief Brent's vehicle here as well!

Shot this on the same day as the Fluvanna rigs. I wanted to get everything at the station but the personnel on duty weren't very cooperative. I don't have much info on this rig, hopefully Roto-Ray can fill in the blanks.

This is not Louisa, Virginia. I suspect either Kentucky or Iowa.
