A steam engine on the Riverside And Great Northern Railroad. My wife and I took the tour on the train.
My 2nd new custom Fire engine. I wanted to try a different style. 6 wide front with 7 wide back. Dual rear wheels on each side. All compartments are filled with appropiate tools and accessories. There is a stretcher in the middle. The design purpose of this vehicle is for urban Search & Rescue, MVA response, and HAZMAT.
