Here you go Cos - she was a target of opportunity one day down on the Mall around 1977-80.

Thanks Kevein.As for Snyder saying the Shop installed the Metal Roof.. NOT.Also Snyder mentions the Mack at Metro. It wasn't a DC MAck. It had a Hemi in it. If I recall the story correctly these B Models came in with Air Brakes and they were Speced with Juice Brakes. So in our Shops wisdom they made Mack retrofit juice Brakes and never looked at Mack again for Apparatus.
I did have the pleasure of driving one as E-12's pumper one day and I felt right at home in it due to my Rockville training <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/BananaMan.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
