Amherst, MA

19xx Oren

Joe Klein photo, H Smith collection[/quote]





The Oren was a 1950. 1000gpm and a 500 gallon tank. One of our captains told me that it was the first truck he ever drove and he loved it. Aparantly it was sold to the town of Pelham Ma. in the late 70s. At some point Pelham sold it to a private party and it sat in a local field for a "very long time" and then dissapeared.

F.Y.I I was talking to a Revere FF the other day and he said the 2 new Engines (3 & 5) will be in Late Sept early Oct. They will be Pierce Arrow XT looking identical to the Current Engine 1 and 4 from the Pump panel back (1 & 4 haveEnforcer cabs not Arrow XT). The New Ladder 1 also a Pierce and will be an Arrow XT tiller. It is set to be in in Late December early January. This will be identical to Ladder 2 again expect for an Arrow XT Cab and not Dash cab L2 has.

I think a better question would be why does ENGINE xx have any aerial at all............. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/stirpot.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='Stirpot' />

Thanks Dave, same horse - different color. Just a "poke" at my Danvers friends here on the board. I hated calling it an engine when I was there in Danvers.

Here is a pic of Salem Ladder 2 a 1982 Maxim Tiller that has been rebulit twice. The Final time the cab was replaced with a Pierce cab. Soory for quality but I was passing by and took it with my cell phone. This is a reserve and has been running a LADDER 1 for a while anyone know what up with Ladder 1?


Massachusetts Fire Apparatus - Guest - 07-22-2008

I think that Salem, Newton and another community (possibly Waltham?) all received these Maxim aerials after Boston ordered three and canceled the order. Can anyone confirm this ?

L1 is out at EJ Murphy's having the cables on the aerial replaced & a few other issues taken care of ............... on a side note, I heard yesterday that Lynn has a Pierce pump on order.
