I never heard of Corry, Pa, so I put Google to work. On their website, they have 2 houses and run 2 pumpers (no truck) driver only after one of the drivers dispatches the alarm. WOW. Who answers the radio after the driver leaves? Is this a norm in this area? I know Reading has staffing issues, but this makes them looked fully staffed. What if no volunteers arrive at the scene? Are other departments on their boxes? Later.

bandit,



Corry has quite a few more rigs than you have listed. They have 4 engines, 1 ladder, and 1 rescue. I'm not sure what site you were at. I've posted a link to their station site below. It has photos.

GA Dave,



Info on this rig.



Bruce



1985 Ford C-8000/Bruco, canopy cab, 1000/750. This piece had a couple firsts in the company. It was the first unit ordered with a canopy cab and with the distinct paint scheme of white over "Smurf Blue", Cat 3208 diesel, automatic, 5 KW generator. Chassis purchased from Wolfe Motors of Lancaster. It was housed on 9/26/86 as an attack unit, but was converted to a rescue-pumper in 1990. It was said that this piece was the last complete unit built by Bruco which went into the rebuild only business. Sold on 11/4/05 with the 1979 Ford C/Bruco pumper-tanker for $45,000 in total for both to the Stewart County Fire Department, TN. Went south on 11/17/05. In 2006, owned by the District 11 FD (Carol County, TN), still lettered for Westwood.
