From Fort Pickett I continued to make my way to the Lynchburg area and came across Crewe, Virginia. The size of the station and number of apparatus had me drooling. The problem....closed up tight.
I went to the local tire shop hoping I could find some help. A Sheriff deputy was there and provided me the dispatchers phone number to call to see if the Chief of Crewe could be raised. Although I was able to speak to the Chief, he did not know of anyone able to make it to the station to pull out apparatus. Although disappointed, I began to leave and then noticed two cars sitting out back of the station that were not there previously. It turns out both just arrived and were members and drivers....perfect!
Crewe is also located in Nottoway County.
Althouth marked "Attack 1", this truck's radio designation is actually Engine 1.
