Thank you for the answer, and I need to clarify myself a little better; why did they keep the 1 rotator on there? I know that's a whole new cab from it being wrecked so I wasn't sure if maybe they kept 1 light from the old rig just to have.

Squad 61's 2000 Seagrave was wrecked...the body was salvaged and remounted on a 1992 pumper chassis. Squad 61's current apparatus is a 2003 Seagrave built new...it is not a replacement cab.

Squad 18 has the replacement cab and chassis from Engine 212, and the original Sq18 body.

Completely random observation: new font and size of the company number.

I noticed that too, I hope this is for 137's individual truck as personalization and not all of the new trucks, it just looks funny to me.



As for Squad 61, I didn't mean necessarilly that they just replaced the cab and not get a whole a truck, where I was going with that all along was, obviously they saved 1 rotator light from the old truck, and I was just curious to the story behind that.

Those numbers look cheap and don't suit the lettering and striping style used by New York, the FDNY letters on the nose do not look like they are the same either, they somehow look stylized, almost inflated.

Nice pictures Michael, thanks for sharing your work. I love the Seagrave stuff.

from Ferrara's site, new ladder 137 and Rescue 4 and 5 delivered...


F.D.N.Y. - Roto-Ray - 03-24-2011

Looking good! I see that they changed the font on 137's back to the more traditional style.



Anyone know the reason for the Alcoa's on the rescues but not the ladder?
