Harrisonburg STILL has this truck, it is a reserve. Shot it in April 2009.[/quote]
I spent alot of time visiting Harrisonburg until I was in high school as my dad is from nearby McGaheysville. In the late 1980's, when I was probably 8-10 years old, we were at the Exxon station at the intersection of East Market Street and Cantrell Avenue when that ladder came screaming by on a call. Even at the time I remember thinking how old that rig looked. The one detail I'll never forget is how loud not only the siren was, but the motor as well. Man that thing screamed! It's weird how you remember certain events from your childhood and this one has always stuck out in my mind. Thanks for sharing the photo, John.
