Keystone State Relics - Guest - 02-14-2009
The GMC rig from Cranberry is a 1974 GMC/ Swab. It originally served Mill Creek Fire Company in Delaware. It was delivered new with an open crew area. It was sold to Cranberry in 1985 when a new Seagrave/ Ranger heavy rescue was delivered. Cranberry had the body enclosed.
Also the former Cranston Heights Mack CF rescue that serves Kittanning is a 1980. It was refurbed in the late 80's by Swab that included a cab enclosure.

At some time the Peebles District operated a nice Mack B tandem-axle pumper-tanker. Is this beauty still around ?
Not sure, they also had an L-Model as well, I think the L is still there.

I have it as a 68, originally New Haven HoseCo. of Connellsville.
This is what the IH/Welch replaced at Smithfield, but the vfd still had it in 2000.

As far as I know, this 1949 Chevy panel van was bought by John Schmidt ("We have a box working"). John was a great guy, I met him one time personally here in Germany.

I believe this a 1948 model. It currently resides at Texas Fire Museum in Dallas. The original Buckeye Roto Ray that it had has been rebuilt and re-installed.

Probably, that body looks very "4-Guys".

I'm guessing that it would be Galley Brothers, a Pittsburgh area company that also built a Chevy COE city service truck with a front-mount pump for Mt. Pleasant, PA in 1950.

This is a 1970, delivered in December of 1970, It replaced Lower Burell No. 3's B-Model, which they kept at that time. It had a 1,000 gpm Waterous 2 stage, 500 gwt with the typical Mack canopy cab, serial no. CF 685 F10 1209. In the spring of 1988, it was sent to 4-Guys for a refurb. A 4-door cab enclosure, new stainless steel fire body, new pump panel, generator and scene lights, warning lights and an additional 3" rear discharge. This remained in service until replaced on September 11, 2001 by a Pierce Dash. It was sold to the City of New Kensington in November of 2001 and placed in service at Engine No. 2. It was replaced on September 11, 2008 by a Pierce Impel. It is currently undergoing some minor body repairs and will be the sencond engine out of the downtown station in New Kensington.
