As wew were pulling up to Truck 6's house, we got a double bonus, Rescue 1 was visiting and getting ready to leave, so as I jumped out of the backseat of the car and starting running to them waving my arms like a Madman, to get them to stop, they either thought I was Crazy or having a Seizure "Luckily I knew The Officer",so he agreed to take the Rescue down the street for photos.

there's always some sort of rumors going on about new Baltimore City apparatus. 1 rumor I've heard was that a new Rescue 1, both Airflex units & some other leased vehicles for example staff cars, chiefs cars , etc. But only time will tell & we'll never know until we see it on here or in person.

This is straight from the Spec Committee. Currently being spec'd are one heavy rescue, three pumpers (spec is complete on these), one foam pumper to go to E35, one TDA and two air flex units. All medic units will be replaced with the Fords most recently purchased. Also there is a possiblity of a new haz mat, SRO truck and something will be done with T25. Pierce can't make a rig to fit in their firehouse and the City won't move them to old T9 so there has been talk of Seagrave rehabbing their current rig.
This shot was real fun to get, we basically shut down a 5 crossing intersection to get the pumper into position for the photo, after we got them set, we let traffic proceed, I got horns blowed at me, Middle Fingers, and a few choice words thrown my way. but thats ok this shot proves it was worth it lol
