Leave to it me to interrupt you on the cell phone while you were shooting Hanover Engine 3. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />



Just a few notes:

• The Pierce pumper running as Engine 4 in Namozine does have a twin, but a few months ago, it was reassigned to Engine 5 (Old Hickory) from Engine 1 (Dinwiddie).
  
  
• I had no idea that Chickahominy's old squad went to King William (Jerry, you been holding out on me?). Thanks for the heads up!
  
  
• Good question about "is Hopewell's tower ladder in service or not?" That thing has been out of service for MONTHS, with no time frame on getting it back. The jakes don't want it back, but the HFD isn't necessairly in the position to purchase a new ladder either. In fact, the one you saw was purchased used from Charlotte, NC. Time will tell on this rig.
  
  

Hope to see ya soon!![/quote]





Taylor,



I had forgotten that the Hopewell ladder is ex- Charlotte. Thank you.
