Engine 38 ran this 1996 Spartan/Quality 1500/500 for only about four years. It was kept as a reserve.[/quote]
Had heard rumors that the new truck for the new 11 was going to be a Bronto!!!!
Chief Rubin is being Chief Rubin up here in D.C. Had two very significant fires iin his first week. Hopefully he will get this best out of DCFD. Quite a challenge, but seems to have support of the new mayor and the troops. You know at one time he was a DC jake.
Can we get details on how Quint 4 works and responds? Is it still in service, even though FDFC seems to be being decimated by annexation?
Great sight. Spent many nights at #4,6 and 11. Old 11 had to have the skinniest pole I ever slid. Loved riding with Budd Rice, E.O. MacDonnel, Foy Chapman and of course the greatest B/C of all times whose name excapes me. It was jack something and he was actually assigned to the 6th Battalon but usually rode 901 out of Ellis St.
