[quote name='firebuff55407' post='57567' date='Dec 9 2006, 21:43 ']I took this indoor shot of Engine 3 using a 197? Mack CF 1000/500. I believe this company disappeared from the Richmond roster a year later. Anybody have any more info?[/quote]
[color="#3333FF"] This was bought for and was operated by Engine Co. 3 as "Wagon 3". When the company was placed out of service this 1974 Mack CF 1000 GPM/500 tank Pumper, was transferred to Eninge Co. 13 and was operated as "Wagon 13". Later it was replaced and this rig went into reserve status and then retired. This is one of three that the City purchased as 1974's - Engine 1 (Wagon 1); Engine 3 (Wagon 3; Engine 20 ran these nice units. [/color]
