Kilbuck twp is in allegheny county. Its the home of the former dixmont state hospital. Across the river from nevile island near the city of pittsburgh. Killbuck is a rather small department and community but have plans of merging with a few local departments.

Scott,



The Pine Run tanker you posted is I think the same one that you posted earlier in the thread for New Sewickly Twp. FD. It must have been repainted at some point. As Rob said, Kilbuck is in Allegheny County. I was told last week that they no longer are in existence, and are working on a merge with Ben Avon to come back.

I believe Steve is correct on the Marshall's Creek rig. When I shot it several years back, it had been refurbed by Pierce and repainted white with a blue stripe.

One of Millrift's chiefs, Doug Miller, was a victim of 9/11. He was working FDNY Rescue 5 on that fateful morning when dispatched to the WTC. The following July at the annual Port Jervis NY parade, something that nearby Millrift always participates in, Doug's immediate family was honored as "honorary grand marshalls" riding at the head of the parade. At the starting point, hundreds of uniformed firemen and others saluted the Miller family.

This engine is actually a Dodge and not an International.
