Victoria

 

In Latin Victoria means triumphant.  However, this Victoria, a surplus tanker used by the Ralls Volunteer Fire Department, is no longer victorious.  She's parked permanently behind the red building which is the base for the 17 community members who show up when the fire bell rings.  Reese, another piece of surplus equipment painted bright yellow, still functions.  She was parked at the intersection with fire volunteers and their "fill the boot" campaign. We contributed.
