Rumor has it that this one, and another identicle Pumper have been sold to Baltimore City for Reserve Pieces.

Kevin, I heard the same thing.  I guess when one of us sees Oscar next we'll have to ask him about it.

Lets finish off my PGCO Trip from a few weeks ago.

Here's the Reserve Engine running at Sta42 this use to be Riverdales old pumper, which the county took and ran it out of 41 for awhile.

[hungrybus]

Engine 842 was out of service during this visit, the whole reason the Reserve Pumper was there, but The Lt. said it wasnt to sick for pictures.

[hungrybus]

This Engine was also in 42's house during our visit, matter of fact they posed it right before they took a Transfer

[hungrybus]

here's the Ambo that runs out oif 42

[hungrybus]

Speaking of Ambos we found this one setting behind station 32, any body from PG hear the  rumor to them also getting an Engine in the Near Future

The new Engines are headed for 805 Capital Heights (Pierce Velocity painted pink with a white top) and 806 St Joseph's, 816 Bowie - Northview, 847 Allentown Road - Silicia, possible 845 Upper Marlboro - Croom, and one more.  Not sure if the remaining units in the order are Velocity or Arrow XT's.  The Chief said the current Engine 805 the Seagrave rapped in pink will be reassigned.

From the information given at the first delivery press conference a total of 11 engines (5 first year, now 4, then 2 I guess in the third year) 5 Ladder Trucks (2 first year, 1 second year and 2 the third year) 1 Heavy Rescue Squad (guess third year), 13 Ambulances being delivered now, 8 Chiefs buggy's ( 7 Battalion Chief's, 1 Safety Chief), The Confined Space/Technical Rescue Truck (First year), 1 Brush Truck, and the off road rescue ambulance vehicle.  I have also noticed several new staff vehicles of various types.
