Reading Seagrave Shoot : I was invited by Reading Fire to participate in a small shoot of their new fleet of Seagrave apparatus. Photographer Kevin White also arranged to have Wakefield Fire and Lynnfield Fire be on hand as well. It was my first time doing an actual "apparatus shoot" and it went pretty well considering the logistics involved in that all trucks are front line pieces, we shot on the Reading/Wakefield line in a large parking lot which provided a decent space for the shoot. Many thanks to Kevin White, and the participating departments and duty crews for making this possible.

In attendance was, Reading Engine 1, Engine 2, Ladder 1, Wakefield Engine 1, Engine 2, Ladder 1 and Lynnfield Tower Ladder 1

Lawrence, MA - 3rd Alarm - 11/6/09 : At around 1830 hours the Lawrence Fire Department transmitted a telephone alarm for a reported fire in a mill building. Arriving companies found a fire in the former Merrimack Paper Company, located at 9 South Canal Street. A second alarm was sounded on arrival followed shortly by a third alarm, later in the fire Lawrence Fire Group 3 was recalled for extra manpower to the scene. This property was a large mill complex, the fire building being a mixed 1 to 3 story brick construction typical of Mill buildings in the area. Access was limited to companies due to that the C side bordered the Merrimack River, and it was bordered on the A side by a small canal. The building was vacant and posted as such, there fore any attempt at an early interior attack was quickly abandoned for exterior operations only. Not many different angles to shoot from due to the restricted access but I hope you enjoy.
