County Reserve in 2008. I believe this was Rescue Squad 18's old rig prior to the E-0ne tandem axle'd one (corrections welcome). When this ran as RS421 it also rolled with the coke truck. I love the "ghetto style" red duck taped "19" on it shown here. Lol.

If memory serves me, that is the box from the 1984 Ford C/E-1 quick build that E-1 did for Fairfax County. I was attending recruit school when it was delivered to the shops at West Ox.

The same for the one that went to 26. I believe they were rechassised in 98 along with a glider pumper for 26. I do not know where the rescue for 26 disappeared too

Squad 26 was quick build due Squad 18's 1975 Chevy / Reading needing to be replaced. Edsal Rd.'s 1975 Chevy / Reading (twin of then Squad 18) went to Jefferson whan the Ford / E\-One was delivered. The second Ford / E\-One went to Squad 11 to replace their Ford L / 3-D which went to become the second Haz-Mat 34. Penn Daw's squad had a kick out window/panel on the front of the squad bow whereas Squd 26's did not. The rebuilt E\-One Protector at 26 had 11's old box and when 18 got their rebuilt squad (1995) it had 26's old box. Engine 26 was a glider kit from one of the 1980 Duplex / 3-D pumpers, not sure which of three. (8V71 motor)

Dave from what I heard there were about 300 people there and a classic engine 12 showed up so there should be lots of good photos.

E423, 418, 421 and 429 were inspected on the blue floor last week. If things hold to past form look for them in service in 2 to 3 months.



Dunno about the City's rig.

The City's Velocity is due to arrive in April. Don't know when it will hit the streets though.

From what I had seen last time I filled 33 all they have to do is switch the gear over to the new RE. Due to the fact that it is a carbon copy of what the city currently runs just with a velocity cab. It shouldn't take too long to get in service.
