When in Cheshire it was on a Maxim F, don't recall exactly the year but believe it was a 1976.  I am not sure if the body is a 76 or was done later on.  I believe Cheshire parted with it around 2004 and Gowans Knight (local small fire apparatus builder in CT) remounted the body for Newtown shortly after.

Sandy Hook,Connecticut runs this Pierce Arrow XT pumper.

RE: Terry's Tid Bits II - dawson_fire - 09-17-2018

Sandy Hook also runs this Spartan/Rescue 1(?) and a picture of a plague on the station wall with the names of the 26 people who lost their lives in the shooting which was at the school behind the station. They also have 26 stars on the roof of the station.

Found this Duplex/Pierce along the road in Maine marked for Swan Island. Originally it was slime lime and I think it has a look like it might have come from Long Island job#E-0791

I went to an event called Fire Fest in Meriden, CT, followed by a couple days of shooting in CT and MA, then over to eastern PA for ten days that included one in NJ, then to the SPAAMFAA meet in NJ. The trip totaled 22 days and 3600+ miles and I shot about 300 rigs.
