Monterey, MA Engine 3 1980 GMC/Maynard 1000/2300 (or 2500 or 3000 depending on who you ask) - today it serves with neighboring Sandisfield, MA as Tanker 3 and it still looks good, but operationally IMO it is ready for retirement.

Tyringham, MA Tanker Dodge/Ex-USAF 5000 tank, I've heard they only keep it about half full though.

West Stockbridge had a similar unit - I believe it is no longer in service and I don't think they replaced it.

I'll give others a chance to post some before moving onto CT & NY

yup, this is the one Putnam Lake, NY leased/rented for a short bit in 2010. I think New England Fire Equipment & Apparatus owns it now.

These two Dodge's look like almost the same unit, before and after a refurb maybe?
