That is correct it was sold to the township and they are giving it to the fire company that way it did not have to be sold by bid.

Do you know what the GPM, GWT & Foam are for this unit? Also for the other Red Lion Engine you post I have the specs for this unit as a 1990 Pierce Lance 1250 GPM/1500 GWT/50B Foam X-Dover Engine 9-2



Thanks

My girlfriend and I took a trip about a week ago to visit her sister in South Carolina and we took the long way and here are some pics I got along the way.

This Hopewell,Va. engine was at C.W. Williams in Rocky Mount,NC(not sure if it was there for work or a trade in).

Williamston,NC was running this 2009(?) Pierce Impel 1500/750 job# 20896.

Harlowe,NC picked up this former Fairfax County rig.

Here is the other side and the pump plate for those who want to keep track of her whereabouts.

Harlowe was also sporting a fairly new Kenworth tanker.

This Cheverlet/Pierce mini pumper was formerly from Pine Knoll Shores but now calls Harlowe home.

Terry, my guess would be a trade in or simply a disposal. I think somewhere in the VA thread is a newer E-11.

This was the best catch of the trip as you don't see this kind of truck in the south very much(or at least I haven't) was this Pierce Arrow from Fair Bluff,NC and it was bought through Brindlee Mtn.



Terry


Terry's Tid Bits II - dawson_fire - 12-01-2010

Fair Bluff also ran this IH/E-one.

The other side.

Further down the road I found this Spartan/Gimaex sitting outside the Aerial Options plant in Mullins SC.I have a shot of the aerial base as the ladder will tilt side to side.

After getting to Manning I shot these trucks sitting along I-95,first is this American LaFrance ladder which was marked for Albermarle City and I think is a 85' model.

I was told it was a 1949 but I have my doubts as I didn't think that cab came out until later and the Detroit engine brought a tear to my eye.

It also had markings on the cab as a Foamite.

The Alf's field mate was this 1978 CF Mack also told it was from Albermarle City,NC- note they are both for sale and both started right up.

Manning runs this ALF ladder truck that looks like it could have been used for the AMT model.

Manning engine 8 is this Spartan/E-1.
