HMMMM does anybody know anything about this unit????? I would bet i know someone who does!!!!!!!!!!

2010 Spartan Metrostar - Alexis - Hale 1500 gpm/1000 water . I'll reserve comment about my opinion of it. Our paid staff runs this rig 6a to 6p Monday through Friday, and its the front line all other hours out of the station, so it gets some use...



Good news, our board has mandated replacement of the out of date extrication equipment on this and our other rigs, so we'll have something new by the end of spring to cut with.



As always, if anyone ever wants photos of our stuff, I'm happy to make it happen. Can usually help facilitate neighbors stuff too.

South Beloit's "new" buggy used to be Win-Bur-Sew's, in case anyone thinks they've seen it before.

I grew up in St. Louis and would go down to Branson a couple of times a year, once in the summer for two weeks and once in the fall for the octoberfest, When my father was on the Gardenville Fire Department we stopped by the one Branson Station at the time and they showed us a Rattlesnake that they killed in the area behind the station. The last time I was there was in 82 and the has sure grown up since then. Thank you for sharing these.

Now on to Springfield MO Here is Springfield engine 12 at the Hazmat station and here is the Hazmat response vehicle These guys have their stuff together. Everything is organized to where some of the items that don't need to be checked on a daily basis there is a locking tag put on the tub and as long as it isnt broken everything is ok. Very sophisticated station and super nice guys.
