A 1967 Seagrave tiller was also purchased. Eventually, toward the end of its career, the 67 Seagrave cab was joined with one of the 1969 tillers to operate as a reserve truck. This was sold/donated to Berryville, Virginia.



Photo taken in 1987 while running as Truck 8 in Annandale.

Although fond of Seagrave tillers, a 1969 ALF (900) 100' tiller with a 250/150 was purchased. This photograph was taken in 1983 at the county shops when the ALF was assigned as Truck 22 in Springfield.

Fairfax County also purchased a 1973 Seagrave PT 100'. This also served at a variety of stations and ultimately a reserve. This picture was taken in 1978 at Station 11 in Penn Daw. This truck was eventually sold to the Rouss Truck Company in Winchester, Virginia.

Mike, I'm relatively certain that this truck was originally purchased and entered service at a station other than at Station 15.....Station 15 didn't have a Truck assigned to it until sometime in the late 70's or early 80's...

Truck 22 as shown above was originally purchased and assigned to run as Truck Co. 5. and for several months, it ran out of Station 11, as they staffed 2 trucks and then it moved to Station 5 sometime later.
