Trey, do any of the Spotsy rigs at 5, 6, or 7 have Chancellor VFR on them anymore?

Paul,Station 5 is the only Chancellor station still ran by the volunteers,Currently Brush 7 ,10 and some of the rigs that use to run at 6 are still marked Chancellor.

There have been several updates that I have been able obtain since last month . Here are some of those changes........


Portsmouth has taken delivery of (2) Pierce PUCs painted in the New black over red scheme at Engine 1 and 9 . Both replace 2003 Pierce Dash Pumpers which will become reserves .


Great Shots! Any idea on where the new tiller will go? And why did they change back to a "standard" type engine design?

Trey, 

 

What's with the "Wilderness" designation? What does that mean in their county?

Trey, 

 

What's with the "Wilderness" designation? What does that mean in their county?

Its basically the name of the geographical area the station serves.They are in a mostly rural area and very close to the Wilderness Battlefield from the Civil War.
