Ex Rescue 4. This was recently sold through a broker. It began life as a tractor with the Port Authority of New York and New Jersey. Then went to a fire department in Bucks County. It was purchased in 2000 by Station 4 to repalce their 1992 International 4900 4 door low profile. It was repainted and new emergency lighting placed on it.

Partially correct. It was an armored car chassis (with a big armored box) on the back for the NYS Thruway. It was such a huge chassis as it had to travel from one end to the other and collect the coin monies (quite heavy by the time you got done!) It was purchased by the Warrington Fire Company, Bucks County Company 29, and Saulsbury mounted the rescue box.

The Arnold No. 2 B-Model Mack was a 1953. It was in service until 1976 when the engine failed and was towed to their public works garage. They used New Kensington's 1949 L-Model Mack for about a year until the City of Arnold purchased a 1977 Mack CF-600. The CF served until 1995 when the city purchased an HME/New Lexington. The CF was sold to Goose Creek Rural Vol. Fire Co. in South Carolina. The B sat at the public works garage for years with the chrome grill rusting away wth the rest of the truck. And in 1982 Arnold No. 1 purchased a 1956 B-Model Mack chassis from J.C. Moore Industries for $1,000.00. This chassis formerly served McDonald, PA. The members took the pump and body from #2's B-Model and placed it on the newer B. They then added a 10,000 watt generator and an air cascade system. This was the first light and air piece in northern Westmoreland County. It was also the second engine out of No. 1 in Arnold. This truck was sold to someone in the Saxonburg, Butler County area about 6 years ago.

The Latrobe aerial is at Fortunatos, a fire truck repair company along State Route 22 west of Blairsville. Dave Fortunato bought it a few years ago when Latrobe purchased a new Sutphen tower. He sold the engine and tranny and some aerial parts from it. As of a month ago it was still there but he plans on scrap it in the spring. He also had Latrobe #2's 1968 American LaFrance engine and #5's old Hendrickson/FMC as well.
