St. Louis Metro
Next I headed north on 367 to Lindbergh. I was going to stop by Black Jack station 3, but the truck co. was on a run. I headed into "rural" north St. Louis County. I didnt realize how much open land there was up that way. Winding my way down Old Jamestown Rd. I came upon Black Jack station 2. The crew here was also very friendly, they pulled the engine out for me. Then gave me quicker directions back to station 3 to see the new engine and their truck co.

Following Black Jack, I headed south on Lindbergh and found my way over to Florissant Valley station 2. Station 2 is located at Washington St. and Derhake Rd. As I was ringing the door bell, I heard the jake-break pulling up. I snapped a few shots before they pulled the engine in. Their driveway isnt quite long enough to get pictures.

Today I rode with U-City Fire. The Chief, Asst. Chief and the Chief from Mid County FPD went out to lunch. After lunch we swung by Mid County so I could get their engine. They have two identical Pierce Dash. Their station is located on Pennsylvania, just south of St. Charles Rock Rd.

Nice Shots of Mid County's Rig. It looks pretty identical to Ladue 3924, or is it just me.

They are somewhat similar, but there are quite a few differences.
