Any updates on the new Trucks/Pumps/Rescue ?? <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/wink.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
There are no ladder trucks on order. The new E\-One pump should be delivered very soon, Id say within a month or so. The rescue seems to be behind shedule. I got word from another member here that the rescue body was just starting construction a week or 2 ago, so Id say another 2 months there. Interesting part is that it will be a dual axle walk in box on a Quantum cab. I find that interesting that theyd get something that big but this is the Boston Fire Department we are talking about here and theyve been known over the past few years to do some unorthodox things.
Anyone have any word on the new Rescue-1?

Go to West Roxbury with the intent of taking pictures of the stations, come across three seperate incidents around Blue Ledge Drive and Washington Street in a span of about 30 minutes or so...first time I've ever had that happen before!
Engine 55 off at box 2797, a much better shot than the one I posted yesterday
Ladder 25 off on around the corner from where they were previously, this time investigating a bus accident.
Car 12 rushing to the apparent bus accident...thankfully it was a false alarm.
When I go to the plant next month I will take any productions shots possible for the new Res.1

Ladder 1, being used alongside Mass Firefighting Academy Ladder 1 to hold the flag at yesterday's inauguration ceremony.
Sorry for the folks in the photo, extremely hard to get a decent shot of either ladder.
Some shots of rigs at the recent two alarm fire in Charlestown
