Loudoun County,Va.
The Five (5) Section Mid-Mount Ladder is 100 ft. the Mid-Mount Platform is only 95 ft.
Mechanical engineers build weapons, whereas civil engineers build targets.





When the man at the door said," Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms", I, naturally assumed it was a delivery!

Just for info Station 19 in South Riding is a County stationn staffed 24/7 by career firefighters with no volunteer staffing/participation currently. The County does "rent" and\ Engine and Ambo from Arcola, and Arcola is putting a new pumper in there soon. Not sure why the county doesn't.

I'm not sure about Lucketts, but there are no more volunteers at Neersville. They turned all of thier operations over to the county about three months ago.

Yes they do.One is a 75' and Station 18 just took delivery of a 100' or 105' model which is not in service yet.

They did have 2 twin 75' quints correct? If so, is the other a reserve or has it been sold? I forgot what I had read on here.



Thanks in advance.

Thanks for the info, I was just a little confused, I remember seeing pics of two Smeal 75ft quints lettered for 11 and 18. What manufacturer built the new quint?
