Colonel John's Trading Post, Rear View
This buiding was next to the fire station. The rear portion of the building broke loose and floated into the middle of Route 50 in front of the building. The flood also damaged the remainder of the building, causing it to lean as shown in the photo. Photo credit Buzzy Carter.

This used 1948 Chevrolet fire engine was Aldie VFD's first fire engine. This engine cost $5500, and served Aldie until 1972 when it was destroyed by flash flooding during Tropical Storm Agnes. Photo credit unknown.Aldie's First Fire Engine

In the months following Tropical Storm Agnes, the USGS and NOAA studied the flood levels. In this photo, (the original report has no legible photos), the 100-year flood stage is about 2.5 feet above the road surface at the immediate end of the bridge (roughly the top of the dumpster). The 500-year flood stage is about 6 feet above the road surface at the end of the bridge, or roughly the top of the SUV that is crossing the bridge. The estimated stage of the Agnes flood was at midpoint between 100-year and 500-year stages. Photo by Mike Carter.Agnes Flood Stage
