Orland Fire Protection District history

This from Mike Summa for #TBT:

For TBT-Orland FPD’s Engines 7&8, 1999 Pierce Saber 1500/750.  Photo taken at Orland Maintenance Bldg.  I believe these two are dedicated spares, correct me if I am wrong.  These two are probably gone since last week I spotted an Engine 8 in town which was a 2009 Spartan/Darley.  Enjoy and comment.
