I believe this was originally their tanker (G-46) before all the companies got the International rigs.

Goochland is a rural but fairly wealthy county, it surprises me that they've held onto something of this vintage. They can afford six matching tankers, six matching Velocity engines, two heavy rescues, two aerials....and this. ;-)

[/quote]I was shocked to the fact they still had this along with their Ford -Pierce Engine.

You're right, I had the wreck on my mind, and wrote Velocity. Thanks for catching that.

Does Fife still have that old pumper (or tanker) which runs now as Squad 47? The last time I was there, I believe it was yellow.

Alexandria's engines are done and are now in the deliveries section of customfire.com link is below. Nice engines but only two in the pictures, I thought they had four on order?

Has anyone heard what type of "Ethanol Respone Foam Units" Alexandria is considering buying for FS210? According to the site plan info on the station, that's what is supposed to be assigned to FS210, in addition to a Medic and Engine. Just curious ....
