After I left Locust Creek I rode up to the Trevilians VFD in hopes of shooting their apparatus too. As luck would have it, there was nobody at the station. Although this station is a several miles off of the main road they have two Seagrave engines, a large tanker, brush truck, ambulance, and EMS vehicle plus a boat. After making contact with the Chief, I plan a return visit soon.

As far as I know they like them minus the area where the Ladder is stored......which is on the new PW Rigs.

A couple of cloudy day photos from this past Friday. In case you were wondering, the original 750 gallon tank was replaced with an 810 gallon poly tank.

You don't find too many Seagraves in the central Virginia area, but Trevilians in Louisa County has two.

Another rarity in Virginia are Midwest Fire apparatus. Roto-Ray tells me there are only three, and two of those are in Louisa County.
