Tandem Pumping thats something you never see anymore.

Alex, that is actually called duel pumping from a single hydrant.
Tandem would have been if one pumnper was pumping fom the hydrant and the second or third take their discharge line and increasing the pressure and gpms. Something as in relay operations.
Btw, Steve, Great photos!! You don't see bridging being down in these days!!
