New specs and bids are going out soon for 2 maybe 3  engines if not more , things seem to moving forward some now

When built, the rig had a skid unit with a Darley / Rotex Engine pump package..... I wonder how long the Rotex Engine lasted in that package.

Thanks BFD1151. It is great to see someone posting Virginia apparatus. I appreciate your efforts.

 

While I am on here, anyone seen/photographed any of the new Alexandria engines?

Jerry,


I don't think any of the Alexandria engines have made it in service yet. I've been waiting for my Custom Fire contact to let me know when one does.

Glad to see that Buckhall went back to Pierce......I was fortunate to have been a member there and drive the other Pierces they had !!!  Good times !

Radford also runs an ambulance (which I didn't shoot) and a Freighliner FL112 with gooseneck trailer as a regional Hazmat that I couldn't get pulled out.
