Sunday was the last day of the trip.  We headed west in separate cars, knowing that I would have to head for home by 11 AM.  We stopped at a few stations along the way, but found no one home at either Efland station, nor at the Rescue Squad in Graham.  The City of Graham has paid guys.

Last Wednesday, I took a drive down to south Georgia.  One of my stops was to update apparatus from Albany.  All of the previous apparatus I have photographed have been replaced as front line units.  They operate from 11 stations.  I began at Station 1, where I hoped to discover what was where in the rest of the stations.  It turns out that there was some big bridge dedication ceremony that day and the two newer aerials I would have photographed were set up on display with a large flag between them and that they would remain there until late afternoon.  I also discovered that 10 of their 11 engines are running nearly identical rigs.  Engine 10 was standing by at Station 1, so I photographed it and headed north.

This tanker was assembled by the Lee County FD around 2003 from an assortment of pieces, mostly obtained from military surplus.  The tractor came from a local trucking company.  The trailer is the type normally used to carry CONNEX boxes.  The pump and tank each came from various military locations.  It appears to be a very functional unit and they have under $25,000 invested.
