Here is the revised Shot of ex Truck 2 which was disbanded. The truck is lettered Truck 3 but from what Iam hearing it might not go to Truck 3. Its up in the air for now.The Rig only fits in a few stations and thats why they were going to give it to 3 truck. The current Truck 3 is a 2001 Seagrave Tiller which the crew dont want to lose. The truck has been setting out back of Fire school for a few weeks now. It might become a Reserve who knows.

Now why would it go into reserve status if it only fits it certain firehouses? Was told the other day by a very good source that more then likely it will either stay as 3 or go to Truck 20 which then they will move to Engine 50.

The Milestone part of Germantown is at the intersection of RT 355 AND RT 27, it is really just a huge "box-store" shopping center.

The station has not been built, and likely will not be until the county's economy(budget) improves...

This might not be the place to put this but frankly I dont care. CONGRATS needs to go out to Slippery and his wife Steph on the birth of their daughter last night Emma was a little early so lets all hope she gets to come home soon! CONGRATS Sam and Boo! Love you guys!

All the BEST, Sam.

So then E734 is a new company running out of an existing station? Or simply a rig for the "proposed" station?



Thanks in advance.

The latter; you might recall that the engine order has been in process for 3 years, enough engines were ordered then to fill all fire stations then active, plus the new stations that were proposed (37 engs. total)Obviously, financial issues in all the local jurisdictions are holding up projects.I'm fairly certain that the engine "without a home" will find use somewhere...
