Belmont MA Rescue 1. A 2007 Chevrolet 4500 with a Horton Box...no Air Ride Suspension. The former Rescue 1 a 2002 International with an AEV box will become a spare...Rescue 2. It is slated to go into Service within the next two weeks...waiting for radios and a few other extras.

Very nice. I was next to the current R1 this morning, and it still looks as good as when I shot it in 2003.

I haven't had the chance to get up and look at it yet, but I believe it's either a 1974 or 1977, former Medford Engine 1 or Engine 3, refurbed by Greenwood in 1986 or 1988 respectively. The former Melrose Engine used by the MAFD from 1993-2006 was a 1976.

You are correct. I originally went looking on firenews.org to try find the year for this rig, but apparantly the listing there has not been updated in some time and still lists the old Melrose piece, which was a 1976.



There was another Medford Mack that was refurbed by Greenwood that wound up in Peabody as well. Does anyone still know if Peabody has this on the roster? I haven't seen it kicking around in a long time.

Massport Fire Marine 2...extremely hard to get a shot of this while docked with the State Police marine units in the foreground.
