  There are more Crimsons on the order yet. I’m not 100% positive how the order read but I think they are supposed to start on the 2014’s this fall as part of the order and from what I heard it may be possible that some tower’s might come out of it. But that’s not for sure just scuttlebutt and you guys no as well as I that it’s a wait and see thing.

  That brings up a good point because Crimson hasnt been building any Trucks for the city in the last year or so.

  Just saw E-One has started building 100 foot ladders on single axels agains. Hopefully the city thinks about this. The information says single axel, 11 foot jack spread. I know they awarded the contract to E-One before Crimson but the contract was pulled.

  Seen Truck 50 in a dealer lot on York road (south) not too far from Grand ave. It was near the street among the trucks for sale. Not sure what it is doing there but it wasnt for sale.
