Frank, awesome shots of the older rides..
I remember Suffolk having that rig, back when i was just a young'un...saw it running emerrgency a couple of times when we were in Suffolk for something (That falls under the 'If I had only had a camera and known what i know now' category.
Arond '65 or '66 the Norfolk 900 series TDA (or one of her sisters) was the lead shot on a news report of a fire call ..it was a oil leak burning in a ditch, don't remember where or many details, but I remember the anchor saying that the fire looked far more spectacular than it actually was, and the shot of the rig responding in, running code, from the front left. And, it being 'Back In The Day, there were (If I remember correctly) a couple of the guys riding the side step of the trailer.
The pics of old Richmond 3 Truck are just sad...i wanted to cry. That was such a beautiful. classic old rig.
I've only seen pics of her when she was in service (Thanks John)...wish i could have seen her in person.
