I hope some of you can help me out I'm looking for full walk arounds or at least some pics and maybe enough to put together a walk around of the following Rescue trucks.
1: NJ Urban Search And Rescue - Mid 2000's Spartan Rescue One About 30-40' I think non-walk in rescue
2: Mitchell, IL - 1974 Ford C series - Gertenslager
3: Wilmington, DE - Rescue 1 - 70's Ford C series - Gertenslager or maybe Swab
New Haven Firefighters arrived to find heavy fire on the top floor of this two and a half, wood frame around three thirty a.m. Companies initially made an interior attack, but were withdrawn do to a water supply issue. The fire soon took hold of the top floor and went through the roof. An exterior attack took about forty five minutes to darken down the fire before companies would regain entry to overhaul. All primary searches proved negative except for the removal of one family pet, a cat, which was found on the first floor. Several families were displaced. No one was injured in the blaze.
New Haven, CT - Firefighters arrived to find heavy smoke showing from the second floor of this two and a half story dwelling. An interior attack was initiated, however a bad hydrant caused a delay in getting water. A primary search resulted in one victim being pulled from the fire floor. A second alarm was transmitted by orders of Battalion Chief Gould. The fire extended into the third floor before companies were able to bring the fire under control. One firefighter was transported with burns to the lower extremities and one victim was transported in critical condition. The state and local fire marshal's divisions along with New Haven PD are investigating the cause of the blaze.
Bridgeport, CT - Shortly before one o'clock a box was transmitted for a structure fire at 350 Hanover St. Companies arrived to find they had already lost the fight when they had two, three story, wood frames going throughout, with two more also exposed. Companies could not enter the street due to conditions from previous snow storms, multiple wires down and radiant heat. Multiple hand lines were stretched and operated as well as multi-versals and one tower ladder. It took companies about an hour and a half to bring the fire under control. Twelve families were displaced. No one was hurt.
On February 24th a dwelling fire was reported in northwest Baltimore. Truck 12 was first on scene and had fire showing. He made it a working fire followed quickly by a second alarm. There was a report of a person trapped inside. Due to heavy fire conditions and extreme hoarding inside exterior operations were initiated. After fighting the fire for 2 hours enough fire was knocked down to go inside and finish extinguishing hot spots. A male victim was found in the first floor front room.

When I open Firepics, The Apparatus Photos and Fire Scene Photos are seen for about 1 second, then Admin. & Scuttlebutt forums are seen and I can not get to Fire Scene Photos.
This just started yesterday. Any idea what's wrong?
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">I am trying to locate this 1973 Mack R / Grumman engine. It was originally owned by the Quakertown Fire Company in NJ. It was sold to the Stewart County Fire Rescue in Tennessee around 2001 along with a 1975 American LaFrance engine from the Clinton Fire Dept also in NJ. The Mack was taken out of service by Stewart County several years ago. My contact at Stewart County has lost track of the Mack's location. If anyone has any pictures of the Mack in service with the Stewart County Fire Dept or any other departments, I would like to obtain those also.
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">The first two pictures are of the Mack with the new Grumman body when she was in service in Quakertown, NJ and sold to Stewart County TN Fire Rescue. The last two pictures are of her with the original Mack fire body.
<p style="color:rgb(40,40,40);font-family:helvetica, arial, sans-serif;">If any one has any information and pictures of the Mack engine, please contact me at matt.papenfuhs@gmail.com. Thank you for any information.
