Ladder 36 ?
Mechanical engineers build weapons, whereas civil engineers build targets.
When the man at the door said," Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms", I, naturally assumed it was a delivery!
Engine 26....
Sorry I don't have the job numbers, I grabbed these shots while walking from the 'Blue Floor" over to another section of the plant... Tim W.

Did you happen to see AFD's other new ladder? It's a Pierce Velocity 105 stick.
Great shots YeOldeEnjine.

Great shots YeOldeEnjine.[/quote] Thank You... No, I can't say that I did see the Velocity. My trip was a 2-day pre-construction meeting with Lutherville, Md. so I didn't have much time to look around in depth....

Thanks again YeOldeEnjine.
I'll get the job numbers when I shot them.
FYI for anyone keeping up with the AFD. Chief J.J. Adame resigned today (May 7, 2008) has chief of the dept.
Sorry for the thread hi-jack but was that for Lutherville's new squad?

Another shot showing the wheelbase of these engines. They really like the top-mount pumps, apparently, but I'm suprised an urban department would want the wheelbase that came along with it.
