This rig is on a Ford F-700 Chassis. It was the bigger then the pick-up but not the C8000 or L9000 as used on more of the Heavy Over the Road truck lines. This was the "box Truck" chassis by Ford... maybe Light Truck series.

I will check tomorrow and atlthough I haven't seen it on the road lately it might still be on the roster.


Tour of New Jersey - engine98 - 12-21-2011

Hopefully as a reserve !!! LOL It would be interesting to see if it is still in service.


Tour of New Jersey - ffemt2638 - 12-21-2011

They still use this truck quite a bit. This isn't the only truck they have like this I believe.


Tour of New Jersey - engine98 - 12-21-2011

Thanks for the info, Guess the city got their moneysworth with that engine. Do they also still run this Grumman Pumper ?

Those Grummans were well worn and made to the scrap yard about a year ago.



New Brunswick has three engines in reserve. Engine 11, Engine 12, and Engine 15. If the Mack is still in service it should be out at Engine 2, Engine 11 was/is a a 1977 Mack MB/Howe that was refrub'ed in the '90's by Lee's Emergency Equipment in Tuckerton, and Engine 15 which I think was one of the first Seagraves they bought in the late '90's/early 2000's.



I will tried to get the current fleet status tomorrow.

Thanks again for the info. These photos go back to around 1998 or so

They are out of the heavy rescue end of the business, the ambulance service still is running strong (I see them on the way to/from the hospital in Mt. Holly almost every time I'm driving around). I stopped off at their station back in September and was told that they had sold the Pierce to Independent a few months prior and were just going to be doing EMS only. I wish that Independent would have kept part of the Pierce's paint in silver as it was a heck of a unique paint scheme.

Thanks for looking into that for me, I wonder how much more life she has left in her.

Believe me New Brunswick will squeeze every drop out of her. For a 31 year old engine it looks cosmetically good.


Tour of New Jersey - Guest - 12-23-2011

Medic,



What is New Brunswick currently operating front line? I had read some where that they had ordered a new Seagrave engine but was not sure if that was correct.



Also, where did they get the Pierce tower from?



Thanks in advance for the info!



John

Does anyone know what happened to West Trenton's former Tac 333, 1979 Chevy/Hamerly?
