Today, I took a trip about an hour to the east to Washington County, TX to visit Washington County EMS for some photos of their awesome fleet. For more on information this awesome EMS agency: http://www.co.washington.tx.us/ips/cms/WCEMS/ Let's start with Squad 1, a Ford F-250/Frazer Bilt, which is staffed by the on-duty Lt. (Shift Commander) out of Station 2 (HQ): Speaking of Station 2, it opened in 2008 on Hwy 290 South in Brenham, TX: Washington County EMS-1 (Cheif) operates this Ford F-150 Washington County EMS Medic 4 runs with this Ford F-350/Frazer Bilt I've never seen an EMS boat before. They are first due for water rescues in a lot of cases, and they have a large recreational lake and other independent bodies of water throughout the district. Let's take a closer look through Squad 1: And now, let's take a look around and inside Medic 2 . Medic 2 is a Frazer-Bilt, which is unique because the module is powered by a generator (gasoline powered and whisper quiet) that makes the module completly independent from the chasis power, with straightfoward wiring and easily remountable. It also makes the A/C turn the module into a fridge quick. They are also built in Houston, and very popular throughout the state. Very rugged build, and very nice and durable inside layout: http://www.frazerbilt.com/flash.php And some of the equipment at Station 1: For more info on Washington County EMS: http://www.co.washington.tx.us/ips/cms/WCEMS/ And, then there's the Brenham Fire Museum, which is a absolutely meticolous and beautiful building with painstakely restored classic apparatus in the bays: Brenham FD Rescue 1: Brenham Engine 4: Brenham Brush 1: Links: For more on this awesome EMS agency: http://www.co.washington.tx.us/ips/cms/WCEMS/ And their apparatus: http://www.frazerbilt.com/flash.php Brenham Heritage Fire Museum: http://www.ci.brenham.tx.us/FireMuseum.cfm
