It was assigned as Engine 6 from 1991 to 2000.After that it was reserve till 2006 and taken OOS and sold.It was kept in good shape while in Norfolk,sucks to see it like that.There is a mixture of older rigs at the landfill by the way.

I caught this back around 2000 I think it was, Fire House No. 6, before they closed the house on Va. Beach Blvd and moved then to the former fire house 3 on Pembroke.

Station 6 was moved to Sta 3 in 1997 and # 3 House became 6 House.Sta 6 became sta 3 and only housed a Squad,Hazmat and Battalion.They closed in 2005.All this was done because once the current Station 1 was opened you had two engines within sight of each other.They moved E6 to sta 3 for better response time.

I can remember back in '87 when Vol's in Driver purchased this rig from a Dept in L.I.N.Y., it was White over Lime, served Driver well. BTW it's an Oren.

I also found two other trucks that I could not find any information on. They were rusted and covered up with vines.
First is a city service truck

The next one was just the pump and body of the truck. It had an American Barton pump is the only thing I could find.

They aren't the same rig, John. Benjy posted a C-85, the Richmond rig was a C-95.
