Iron Gate was another good stop. I was making my way from Fincastle to West Virginia. I had visited Iron Gate many years ago on the way to a Virgina State convention, so I somewhat remembered where the station was. Not surprisingly, the station was closed up tight. A neighbor saw me looking through the garage windows and happened to be a member of the FD. He could not drive, but made a phone call and shortly someone was down moving apparatus around.
Iron Gate is in Alleghany County, Virginia.
First up is Tanker 1, a 1987 International Navistar/Slagle's 500/1800. It carries Slagle's s/n TWT8222. The name "Boodles" on the truck is referring to a Iron Gate firefighter now deceased who loved driving this truck.
