Hey Kenny,



I have somewhat of a roster at home...I also have some action shots of the CFB Sherwater guys training as well if you're interested.

Tandem Axle....they also have a sweet looking King Seagrave Custom CM1 Snorkel that they run as well. I'm trying to get a nice day and round someone up to photograph the fleet.

Always wondered where that truck ended up, I remember when Uniondale got it, they didn't have it long. Thanks for posting! Can you post the snorkel they run too when you get a chance?

For anyone that follows airport ARFF deliveries in Canada.....I was on my drive home through Indiana from DC and saw going east bound on I-80 a Striker 1500 on a flatbed for Deer River Airport, which is in Newfoundland.

Toneslider12 can probably confirm this, but I think this rig was originally Wheat Ridge, Colorado's...

I saw this rig a couple of weeks ago at the Carrier Dealer in Brantcford, ON.

It was getting some warranty work done to it, a very long drive for it???

The Q was removed off it but did see the roto ray and bell, very rare for Cdn rig, but I like it!

Hey John,



It was there getting some work done on the boom along with a touchup on the paint. This truck has seen ALOT of fire action since coming into service.
