I know this one has been posted before, but maybe someone knows anything about this truck? All I know is that it served Tri-Community at some point as "1284." Mark and I shot it right outside Cleveland, TN several years back.

Andrew,
Love seeing these photos! You didn't happen to see the 4WD Seagrave Squrt at West Knox while you were there did you?
Andrew Messer Photos - Andrew2340 - 03-16-2014
Thanks Shoop! Taylor, I didn't get any trucks pulled out at West Knox this time unfortunately. The Ford/FMC pumper was sitting outside at the main station. Ladder 2 usually stays at the substation though, which I found totally by coincidence. Traffic was so heavy I couldn't hardly get over there to leave noseprints on the windows. I would love to shoot it one day though!
