This one is near and dear to my heart.  E524 is a 2008 Pierce Velocity PUC, 1500/750/40A.  It's twin runs as E504.  Engines 4 and 24 are the only in the County with pump-and-roll capabilities.  Station 24 operates on the far western edge of the County, engine and medic staffed 24/7.  The engine company is responsible for single-pulling the brush truck, mass casualty support unit, boat, and gator as needed.

 

   

 

Station 24 is also one of three swiftwater rescue stations.  Stations 7 and 17 are the others.

Going to end this installment with several taken at a working fire back in March during a snow-storm.  The home was located 1500' down a driveway right off of busy James Madison Highway (Route 15), 4 inches of un-plowed snow made for a long and cold day.

Found this one sitting outside of the Swoope, VA (Augusta County) fire department....I believe it's former New Kent County, VA.  Any ideas?

The City of Manassas is a combination system that is a separate entity that operates within Prince William County.  Fire and EMS run out of separate stations.  The County and City have a very good working relationship with each providing automatic aide to each other.  

 

Medic 501 is a brand new International TerraStar/Braun

 

   

 

Medic 501C (or Ambulance, depending on the staffing capabilities) is one of three similar Ford F's
