Griffith VFD Engine 215

Forsyth County



Went for a little trip this morning, and found this parked on the pad out front of the station. Micah may have info on this rig.

Got word that this is being replaced by a Pierce. Here is the link.

Nice catch Chris, I didn't know Locke was getting a ladder. Before serving Kent Island, this truck served Halfway,MD and had a 1973 Hendrickson cab.In 1988 it was refurbbed with a Pierce Arrow cab. Corrections welcome if this is incorrect.

BFD1151, Sounds correct to me. Here she is at Halfway I think right after Pierce rehabbed her in 1988.

And then when Kent Island had her.

Does anyone have a picture of the tower BEFORE the rehab?



Thanks in advance,

Denver Fire Dept. purchase this 2007 Seagrave Marauder II from Brindlee Mountain Fire Appparatus in December. It was one of a pair that came from Bristol-kendall Fire Dept., in Yorkville, IL.

Thats a nice Seagrave for Denver....just curious, does anybody know why Bristol-Kendall sold it?

Here are a few more in-service rigs in Rowan County. Andrew and I had intentions of shooting Landis' Seagrave Ladder (X-Orange,VA) but it was out having some hydraulic work being done to the turntable. We shot this "new" rig instead.

I know these rigs aren't very exciting to look at, but many depts in the south used these over the years to serve their communities with pride because for the most part it was all they had.
