Being from WV I can shed a little info on the Nitro dept. as I know a few of the guys.
The City of Nitro is in Kanawha and Putnam counties. Nitro and St. Albans cities have dual response in place. Nitro runs I believe 2 engines, the rescue and a ladder (quint) out of the one station. Call dictates what truck goes.
St. Albans runs two stations with the same set up. Ladder (quint) 2 engines and a rescue. Again what ever the call dictates they bring. Both cities are small with St. Albans being the bigger, so the agreement helps with man power and equipment.
Brand wise, I think Smeal, Pierce, ALF, FMC are what they use.
