Does anybody have any pics of the Turtle Creek Hendrickson/Howe Engine and Ladder Trucks when they were brand new? Also, when was the Ahrens-Fox officially taken out of service and what was that International pickup-like truck used for?

Here is the Fox at the 1989 State Convention at Latrobe.

Was this A-F originial to Turtle Creek or did some one else have it when it was new?
I don't find it listed in my A-F files.
Any one know the Registration Number ??
Keystone State Relics - GA_Dave - 03-31-2011
That Fox was original to Turtle Creek and that's the original color, "Turtle Green". By 1992, when I photographed it, it had been repainted white with Turtle Green trim.

1974 Howe/Hendrickson/Grove 100' aerial. Refurbed by Kenco in the 1990's. The engine was replaced by a 1992 KME.

In August 1974, both IH/Hendrickson/Howe rigs attended the Western PA Convention in Somerset,PA. This is a very poor shot taken by a 14 yr.old...

The later Ahrens Fox pumpers with the fender mounted headlights and especially with the compartments look racy, almost like a sports car. These were my favorite of all the Foxes. Thanks for sharing.

My first Western Convention. It was a long parade and a hot day. I wish they were like that now. F.Y.I. Doc, the Western Convention will be in New Kensington Saturday August 6, starting at 2:00 PM.

I liked it better before the refurb. It had more character.
Keystone State Relics - Guest - 04-03-2011
Thank you very much for the pictures. Yes, I must admit that lime green was the better color for Turtle Creek's apparatus.

Controversy time.
Rumor is the Fox is for sale, they were offered $1.5 million and turned it down. <img src='http://www.firepics.net/groupboards/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/banghead.gif' class='bbc_emoticon' alt='

If it's true, I can't blame them. You can't put a price tag on history.
