LOL..... I don't think anybody on the floor at the station knew it was being displayed at the convention. Nice. Anyways, E503 (The Twin) is going back to the dealer for a few different reasons. Radios are not installed yet, No EMS inspection yet and last BUT not least the FRA has not inspected it yet.... I'm saying Halloween is doable for inservice date. LOL.

 

Junior, Any truth on changes to this so called SPEC? Heard the coffins are going away, Truth or wishful thinking? Any truth to Seagraves for Dale City and OWL? You could match the aerialscope to a Seagrave Chasis.... Am I close or way off?

Well just a few things...


1. The FRA Inspection depends on the company to request it.

2. The PWC spec was updated and approved in March and hatch compartments removed then.

3. I have no clue what you are talking about with the Seagraves

My apologies, I must have been told incorrect information on the FRA inspection. I was simply asking about the Seagraves because it was brought up in a conversation the other day at the Station. That's whay I started the question with "Any truth..." We all know how the rumor tree goes. Just asking for clarafication. That's all.

So I'm curious - what does the FRA inspection involve?   Who does it, etc.

Purging some pics from my camera and found these leftover from the summer. I photographed one of the new Dumfries-Triangle pumpers outside the Ocean City Convention Center during the MSFA Convention. Sorry, no specs.
