Rob, John:



Glad that I could help.



The rig at 16 is a reserve/volly rig. The Midlothian (Co 5) volunteers have a small contingency of personnel at Co 16, and this is their rig. However, it's usual function is that it's a ready reserve for the career staff at Co 5 and Co 16 in case Engine 5 or Engine 16 goes out of service. If E216 is not available, they'll try to get E219.



The only remaining canopy-cab Mack CF's are at the training center, none are out in the field.



There is only one reserve truck right now, "Big Nasty." It's the dual-axle 75' Scope that's normally quartered at FS9. However, when T7's new Quantum 100' rear mount comes in after the first of the year, their 1997 Quantum aerial will replace the 75' Scope as the only reserve aerial in the fleet. The 'Scope will be disposed of.



Henrico Engine 6 will probably be in service in the next 4 weeks or so. We're expecting it in-quarters any time.
