Nate, was this taken "pre" incident with the power lines at FS441, or "post" incident?

John, unfortunately not. A good majority of them were from slides that were taken by Clark Martin (RIP), and most did not have dates stamped on the slide. I looked them all over pretty closely as I scanned each of them. Sorry.

For anybody keeping score, E423's 1995(?) Pierce Quantum owned by the Annandale Volunteer Fire Department has been pulled from front-line service. All fire hose and other equipment has been stripped from the rig pending sale, unknown if there is a buyer for it at this time. It is anticipated that E423 will receive E430's 2005 Pierce Dash Pumper after 30 places their new Pierce Velocity pumper in-service.

Medics, hmmmmmm, are those the other funny looking boxy things that sit besides the FIRE TRUCKS that I like to photograph?

That looks like one of the new Strikers just behind the rig.

Suppression support units?



Let me double check my notes from the last teleconference I listened in on; I am pretty sure they said where they were headed. I go back to work on Sunday.

Man, at least let the guy brag on his brand new rig and take delivery of it before you bust his stones....

Fair Oaks is almost the spitting of 2 we are specing now......very nice layout it seems. Looks great.



And we too thought of, and started with the Arrow XT, but given the 100" wide cab of the Velocity and the fact that we are sticking with Cummins, there was no need for the large dog house for the big block and taking up more interior room. Plus the visibility on the Impel and Velocity chassis are much better.



GOOD JOB FAIR OAKS...

Yeah, just like I didn't laugh myself silly about the 'urban assault pumper' elsewhere.
