Squad 18 from the 1980's. Use to play on this rig as a kid.

I believe by the time this picture was taken the frontline rigs were designated as "Engines" and the Wagon term was a thing of the past.
Engine 28
There were seven of the 1983 Duplex-E\-One pumpers on the apparatus roster when I was hired in 1984 assigned as follows: Engine Company 4 (Herndon), Engine Company 9 (Mount Vernon), Engine Company 11 (Penn Daw), Engine Company 21 (Navy Vale, renamed Fair Oaks), Engine Company 26 (Edsall Road), Engine Company 27 (West Springfield) and Engine Company 28 (Seven Corners). Engine Company 4 operated a two piece engine company at the time (wagon and engine)using one of the Imperial-E\-One's as their supply pumper. Engine Company 21's rig was delivered in the Navy-Vale's color of white with a blue stripe, county seal but no other volunteer company markings. Engine 21 (V7138) was later retro-fitted with a CAF system and rehabbed with a 4-door enclosed cab and last assigned to Engine Company 12 in Great Falls. Engines 27 and 28 were also rehabbed with 4-door enclosed cabs and returned to their respective stations.
Tower 3. At some point in this units history the phrase "Tower Power" was painted above the front windshield. Classic!
Rescue Squad 14 in the 80's. My personal favorite of the county's Squads at the that time. A true beast.

Pumper 14 in 1984 [/quote] Awesome shots! Ran many calls including my first working house fire when this rig served Philomont as Engine 8. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/luxhello.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='' />
Former Truck 28 operating as Truck 22 in this photo (though still marked as T28).
