Yesterday was a banner day for apparatus photography with a ton of fire stations hosting open houses. Nabbed several pieces of apparatus off my to-do list.
We start with Technical Rescue 110 for Arlington County. 2003 Freightliner FL-80 (unconfirmed) with a Hackney trailer, temporarily housed at Station 1 off Glebe Road:
Continuing with Hazmat 101, also a Freightliner FL80 (also unconfirmed) paired with a Hackney trailer. Station 1 is its' permanent home:
Continuing with MAB100, Arlington County's medical ambulance bus, which is a Thomas Saf-T-Liner EF/Sartin that was bought with grant money that also provided Fairfax, Loudoun, and 4? other counties with MAB units.
MCSU 100 is an International Durastar/Hackney that also runs out of Station 2 Ballston. I wanted to shoot the command post too but they had no qualified drivers on site, so it sat inside the garage.
Alexandria's reserve truck is a 2012 Spartan Gladiator ERV w/ 100' ladder. Seen here filling in for Truck 208, which is out for the long term currently.
And this is a reserve medic unit for Alexandria, also seen filling in for ALS 208:
