Just a few moving to different stations.  Photos will follow soon.

Well the Seagrave is back from radios being installed and warning light upgrades.  Will soon be placed in frontline.  Within a month, the moves will start.  Rumor has it, that a couple different rigs will enter the bureau's fleet as nice upgrades.  Will keep everyone posted.
