Cheers 4 truck. Outside of Manhattan, in Da Bronx in fact, a canadian friend of mine recently visited, and among the houses he popped into was E42 which i mentioned in my other post as being a rather active engine at the moment as far as fire activity goes. There has been mention on here referi g to the condition of the 2002 engiens, both from serving members and buffs, and he said that even though E42 is a Very proud engine indeed, thier 2002 seagrave looked like it was ready for the yard!!
Chatting to te members the rig struggles up some of the hills in thier response district, but when it needs to pump water for long periods of time.. It never fails. It may not quite look the part or go anywhere fast anymore, but the members like the rig as they kniw it inside out and hiw it works and its little quirks etc. they are not looking forewards to getting a new rig.
