If I am not mistaken, Findlay Ohio used to have an ALF 700 Quad out of the Station on main St by the NW RR Crossing inthe early mid-70's. Does anyone have a picture?

Yes, they did. I'm not sure if I've got any photos of that particular piece or not. I'll check.

The Citizens Fire Co. in Newport/PA had this 1947 ALF 700 quad in service. It has a 750 gpm-pump and a 200 gallon-tank. Today it is privately owned. Juergen Kiefer photo

Does this one belong here? All I've been able to find on it is that it's an American LaFrance. It's lettered for The Paper Wholesaler and sits in a lot near the Florida Turnpike and SR80 in West Palm Beach, FL.
