Virginia apparatus - miscellaneous

[Roto-Ray]

Next up are a handful of rigs from the Zion Crossroads VFD in Louisa County. Louisa is a rural county, and at one time, Zion Crossroads was one of the most "out of the way places" in the county. However, in the past couple of years, this small intersection of I-64, State Route 15, and State Route 250 has become home to a new Lowes, three golf courses, Wal-Mart distribution facility, 2 hotels, and some truck stops, with much more in the plans.



In order to meet these new demands, the Zion Crossroads members have placed two new apparatus in service.



First is this Smeal Sirius rescue pumper, designated Engine 7-1. It replaces an International 4-door pumper that was sold to a broker. This well-equipped rig will be first-out for MVA's.
