Engine 1 is now a 2009? Smeal / Spartan pumper. This Sutphen was refurbished and repainted red, now serving as Engine 7 (spare) out of headquarters.

This thread is awesome! I love seeing all of the Connecticut rigs! Are there more Seagraves from '70's that you could share? I'd love to see some of Turn of River's old rigs! THanks for sharing this amazing collection Juergen!

I toss this photo out a couple times a year to see if anyone has an idea where she ended up. It was thought that it went to a collector after Beacon Falls sold it. Awfully hard to hide a mid-mount Crown on the East Cost. Thanks to anyone who might have any info.
