Wagon, in these three photos, what is the hose load? How much of which? <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/usa.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/3_12_21.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />

John,



The County wagon (71) carries 1000' of 4" and 1000' of 3" I'm not sure on the attack lines. May be Slippery Sam will pipe up on that, he works at 7.



Both Middle River rigs carry 1200' of 5" and 500' of 3". Preconnects on 222 are l to r 200' of 1' and 200' of 1 3/4" on 223, 200' of 1 3/4'. The preconnect loads on both wagons have since changed.

That has GOT to be the first modern, in-service rig (NOT an out-of service antique) I have ever seen with accordian-packed supply line.

What's the justification for staying with 3.5 supply line? I'm sure there is a good one, just curious.



No fight picking here, so please don't take it as such.

FWD,



I saw your rig at Harrisburg, you have any photos of it loaded out. I liked the basics, except I would open up the tailboard area.

I do, but it says "file too large." Do you have a copy of the Dec issue of Fire-Rescue magazine?

That second divider (from the left) was removed, making it possible to put 1500' of LDH there. Also the 2" lines are all on top of a third hard sleeve (on a "platform" built by the factory.)
