A large part of my collection was purchased from a GOOD man, John Floyd. I give him FULL credit on his work, although I may miss something. Thanks John. Also Scott Mattson, Warren Jenkins, Michael Schwartzberg, and Mike Sanders. Thanks Guys.
Not sure if you have not gotten to it or don't have a photo, but looking for Seagrave number for Engine 15. By looking at the other five numbers it must be 78C29 (low end) or 78C35 (high end). Also, I assume by the same process that the DC shop number must be S-158 (the missing number in your list). Not sure how, but I had E11 and E15 backwards. Thanks for the update and correction.
Folks, there were four DC jakes injured in the line of duty. 1 is critical 2 were sent home from Medstar and I have no clue as to the status of the other one. My thoughts are with all of them and their families.

They were caught in a flashover and trasmitted the mayday and were able to evac. but you know the results...
OK a strange day here. Matt has been trying to shoot DCFD TL 3. Today was that day but it was a wierd one.
As we were heading over there and almost in front of my condo an unattended UPS truck crossed in fron tof us and hit a parked car. I had the pleasure of telling the coffe seeking UPS guy he had a problem and to look at his truck.
Then we got to E 16s and the runs were pouring in. Went to a technical rescue on L Street where I almost got into a fist fight with some dumb *** construction worker who didn't want be to take pics on a public stret which HE claimed to control. Ya sure buddy, have a DC Police Officer tell me now go away. Needless to say I spent the rest of the day inside <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
