The Fairfax City Pierce foam unit replaced a foam unit that went to Cherry Hill, NJ. Another older Fairfax City engine I was wondering about was sold not to long ago. I found it by accident this week while traveling to and from Maryland for work.
Fairfax City was running a 1986 Pierce Arrow 1250/500. While visiting a fire station in Frederick County, Virginia, they asked me if I knew about their "new" training and reserve engine for the county. It turns out that Fairfax City donated it to Frederick County and it is kept at the Adminstrative building for fire and police near the Millwood area of the county. It was behind a security fence, and the folks at Frederick County FD were very helpful in moving the Pierce around for photos.
