2nd ladder. Where I come from these trucks would have another 10 years before getting replaced.

Last one for me, reserve engine. Hope you all enjoyed them. I'm sure someone that knows the shop numbers could tell us what these reserves once were.

Tim,



7012 from Fairfax County was originally Truck 425 in Reston.

Shop number 7041 for the 03 Dash from L429 which is now in reserve. Mike beat me to 7012, I had to look it up, I know 7011 was the 03 at Truck 411.

If you have issues with lackluster attitudes from the officer in charge of a unit or station to have a rig moved for you, PM me with all the details. I have the ear of the Fairfax County FRD B-shift command staff. I am a station commander and would never tolerate such inhospitable behavior by my junior officers or anybody under my command. In fact, I have invited visiting buffs to stay for dinner and the like. I regret to hear that some people who call themselves officers in the Fire and Rescue Department acted in such a rude manner towards any of you.

That is SUPER of you. Quite a few others would say..."So...Get over it!"

Yep, E413 and REHAB413 are both in service - I'll be at the paying job during daylight but around at night driving the gut bucket but knowing who's working if they are not busy they should have no problem pulling them out on the ramp for ya.

Chief,

Its possible I might be in fairfax tuesday. Is The new eng available to be moved for photos? Also can that massive rehab thing be moved yet?

Interestingly, FS405 is the only place in Fairfax where I have had the men refuse to move the rigs. That was many, many years ago, and I am sure most of the faces at the station have changed since that time. The guys at 439, 427, 416, and 437 have always been most helpful!



Thanks for the additions to the thread, guys.

LOL at first I thought I read the comment as the "good stuff" not the new stuff. I was going to be sarcastic and say that the good stuff is located in Alexandria and the Airports.... ;-)

If you don't have an up-to-date roster referencing units and shop numbers, a quick (carefully executed)peek on the cab roof usually reveals the old unit ID. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/lol.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':lol2:' />
