TIM I HAVE THEM HAVING A TOWER WHICH WAS BOUGHT AFTER I HAD MAD THIS TRIP. IT IS TOWER 54. THEY DIDN'T HAVE AN ENGINE 54 WHEN I SHOT THEM. THIS WAS ONE OF THOSE RARE DAYS WHEN EVERYONE GRABBED ONE PIECE AND I WAS DONE IN NO TIME.

I recall another Pierce tower from Seminole Trail, it had a different but very neat paint scheme and chrome wheels... I normally like when a company upgrades but this thing is a downgrade in the looks department!!

Same tower, it was just repainted a few years ago. I have to agree that it's former paint scheme was a lot more eye-catching.

Engine 84 served as a reserve/training piece for a short time, kept at the Hollymead station. It was recently sold to Centre, AL.
Yes, your specs are pretty close on E-85, it's a 750/350. There's a sister rig at Earlysville Company 4. They're used primarily for MVA's and the such, hence the small pump and tank combination.

Yes, they operate a Quantum MM tower ladder as T-54. They no longer have an E-54.
The Mack R tanker that Dave shot has been replaced with a Mack Granite tanker as well.
