A strange purchase for Frederick's United FC was this 1984 Spartan "Super Command Cab"/Grumman 1250/1000. I don't know if the big 10-man cab was ever filled, but the rig was a durable workhorse for over 15 years.

The last time I caught up with United's 91 Duplex/Saulsbury, it was still looking good from its 2001 "freshening up" by Saulsbury. Here it is on display on 9/11/05 at the open house of MSP Trooper 3 in Frederick, which was a very cool event.

The rig's replacement was about 6 months away at this time.

This was United RS 3's rig from 1978-91, a Ford F-600/Reading which strangely was painted white/orange, the only fire apparatus in Frederick so painted.

It is on display and 4-sale in 1991 at the SPAAMFAA muster in Frederick.

One of the few Frederick rigs to have a lengthy 2nd career, the 78 Ford/Reading was sold to the Blue Ridge Mtn. VFC in Jefferson Co., WV. They repainted it red, put the Federal Q back on the roof, and ran it for about 10 years.

In 1988, this huge Duplex D-450-T/Grumman 1500/200/102' Tower replaced the ALF 700 aerial, and ran until it was lost in a fire in a Virginia shop in 2000.

This factory photo was being used for an ad, that is why it is highlighted in white.

I thought it still was worth scanning.

Yeah, He is a real nice guy. He is always friendly and willing to give you a helping hand. He has been shooting fire apparatus for over 30 years. He also has a very nice collection of fire apparatus photos from all over.



He is the cool guy in the blue shorts.



Thanks to Hungrybus for the photo.
