The wheel simulators didn't last long on Woburn Engines 3 and 4...the painted steel rims look much better, at least in my opinion. Nice shots.
All these sharp new trucks.....wow....
I can't wait to get our new Pierce ladder. Supposedly it will be done in June, but I bet we don't see it in the company until October.

This is Worcester's Scope in better shape. Scope 3 is broken down to the point that it is undrivable.
Engine 8 on left, Ladder 1 center, and Ladder 2 on the right. I thought this picture from the 2nd Alarm Fire at Lyford St looked pretty cool.

[/quote] They should just leave it just the way it is. The rust gives the old girl some charecter. Looks the a real fire truck

lol true! and with the way money is it most likely will be that route. Ladder 3 was the scope that was totally refurbed its the Seagrave, it has old scope 1s stick/bucket/boom placed on it.

I agree. We got rid of them all. Only Ladder-2 remains. As soon as they damage one, they are all done. At least someone agrees with me,
