They had two tankers, two brush trucks, a new KW/Pierce Contender engine, and a Weapons Carrier, but the only other thing that struck my interest was a 1971 F750/Ward LaFrance engine that formerly served "Canton Fire Dept." It had Spec # 73-605. Anyone out there with a Ward LaFrance database?



The next trip started out in Northview-Kodak, TN at Station 2. Dave, Mark, Micah, and I shot NKVFD Station 1 in late 2007.

Alright, hang on a second here.... they have a WEAPONS CARRIER and you were interested in a Ford/WLF pumper... we REALLY need to get your priorites straight here Andrew.... Weapons Carrier comes WAY before Ford/WLF pumper <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />.... Than again I would have chosen that over the Mack R pumper but only because I shot the Mack R before <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/hysterical.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' /> . In looking over all of these pictures of stuff from up here that is now serving down there I really, really need to plan like a 5 week vacation down there (and you can come up to Franklin County and work dispatch for me.. it will be great fun!!!). Speaking of Franklin County, let me know when you want to come back Up North again...I am now in Franklin County (Waynesboro to be exact) and we have a couple of stations with nice colored apparatus.. I will post examples for you but not of thier big stuff (examples to show color).
