Love these shots, however, Fergus Falls is not in NY. Minnesota, perhaps?

1946 Buffalo

Marked as Buffalo NY but the side says something springs?









Thanks to Bill Schwartz for the use of this photo[/quote]



This truck was privately owned, was active in the Rochester NY area Muster Circuit 15 yrs ago, haven't seen it in ages. I think "Buffalo Springs" was a name the owner dreamed up.



John in Rochester NY.

Quote:Fredonia NY 1947 Buffalo



This rig belonged to the M.M. Fenner Hose Company of Fredonia, NY. The Buffalo book I have shows it as a 1948 custom Buffalo 750 GPM pumper. It was replaced around 1969 and sold to the Scandia FD in North Warren, PA and later sold to Russell, PA. Current status unknown, but it's no longer at Russell.



My first visit to that fire hall was in 1964 on a kindergarten field trip. The Fredonia FD moved out many years ago, but the building still lives on, housing several offices and a deli. The food's not bad! Thanks for posting this one!



Quote:Canadagua NY 1937 Buffalo



Canandaigua. Those Indian names can be tricky! It also served Clifton Springs for a while. I stumbled upon this old girl sitting in a field in Retsof, NY several years back, rusted and neglected. Shortly after that, it was purchased by a collector/buff who has completely restored her and now participates regularily at local musters.

It is! Buffalo used that chassis for quite a few rigs in the 20's.

Minnesota, not New York. It had a 750 GPM pump.

I think that this is a 1953 Ford and not a 1956.

Lyncourt still owns this old Ford. In person the color is more of a butterscotch, than yellow.
