Yesterday, I returned to Fannin County, along with Chad Barday and Mark Carr, where the Chief escorted us to their 13 other stations and pulled the rigs outside for photos.  I left the house at 0530 and got back around 2000.  We shot everything else in the fleet, besides Station 1 apparatus, except one tanker that was at the shop and one rescue truck that was on a call.  This was supposed to be yesterday's post:

Apparently, this one was refurbed early in life, but I have no clue why.

Thanks! After further investigation, it turns out that this platform is a 1983 Ladder Towers, Inc. that was built on a Spartan chassis with Grumman bodywork. The chassis is a 2001 Dash 2001 (#12454) and it was completed, including new bodywork and modifications to the aerial, by the Pierce refurb shop in 2002 (#F-4616). Records have been corrected.
